I rode my bike and hiked on the trails in Springbrook Prairie Forest Preserve in Naperville in August. The trails are wonderful running through prairieland vegetation. No shade is to be expected most of the way. The place was chirping with variety of grassland birds and lots of rabbits were on the trails. A model craft field is also available at the Plainfield Road parking lot. The prairie was abloom with a variety of colorful flowers. The main attraction is an approximately 5.5 mile loop trail (Springbrook Prairie Trail). There is also a one mile trail (Sunflower Trail) which serves as access path from Modaff Road. These two trails are very smoothly paved with crushed stone and biking is permitted on these two trails. There is also a 2-mile long nature trail (Henslow’s Trail) dedicated for hiking only. Lots of black berries were in fruition on this trail. Trail markings are excellent throughout and quite informative placards posted every so often. Rest benches are located about every half mile. The only small negative thing about the loop trail is that a major road (Book Road) cut through the 5 mile loop, which means one has to cross the road twice in order to complete a loop. But, a tunnel under Plainfield Road conveniently connects the two trails on either side of the road. Springbrook Preserve is a gem of a place excellent for hiking, running, or biking. Best on a cloudy day to avoid the sun, though.

Absolutely love the riverwalk- There is an upper brick, lower concrete walk or jog you can take, I do most days along the river- Things to see, plants, flowers, fish, ducks, kayakers, diverse families, water fountains, covered bridges, occasional snakes, frogs, a solo heron. Great place for subrises or sunsets- No bikes allowed- It is lit so you can even walk at dusk- Lots of people of all ages, babies in strollers, on it- Early am more quiet and serene- There is a brand new playground west of the quarry. Clean bathrooms, accessibility to lots of restaurants. Paddleboats, kayaks for rent May to September plus a riverwalk cafe in season near rotary hill. You can walk up to the top of the Carilllon and see the entire area from above during certain weekend hours as well.

Naperville Historic District in downtown Naperville is a great place for recreation. Naper Settlement serves as the main historic underpinning. The settlement has restored historic buildings moved to this historic museum from different places in Naperville. Areas adjacent to Naper Settlement are thoroughly enjoyable with various opportunities for recreation. The Riverwalk which straddles both sides of the Du Page River is a lovely place. The Quarry lake provides opportunity for boating and fishing in season. The pedestrian bridges across the river are beautiful. The Moser Tower is another unmissable attraction. All in all, a visit to Naperville Historic District will be fully enjoyable.

The French Market is the perfect place to stroll on Saturday morning, pick up some fresh produce and baked goods, some flowers, and a coffee and maybe a baked good or two. Also craft jewelry, hot sauces, and other interesting sundries. Love checking it out with our family.
