BEAUTIFUL area! One of the best places just outside of Chicago to go for a walk, or visit the nature museum and see some animals. Breathtaking in autumn with all the Fall colors!

Interesting museum & amazing trail with abundance of wild life wandering freely around the trail.
I saw deers, and coyotes. Also in the museum’ yard they keep injured animals in cages for kids. That includes hawks, turkeys, turtles, fox etc.
