Wonderful natural area with well kept trails. September’s bounty of wild asters was lovely. We always enjoy coming here.

Very nice preserve. Great modern pavilion! Another forest preserve few folks seem to know exists.

Best open prairie forest preserves in Kane County. Great open prairie trails, some paved, others crushed gravel. Attaches to Nelson Lake preserve so you can add some woods and lake walking too.
