2/23/26 LAKEFRONT TRAIL ALERT: Due to weather conditions, the lakefront trail is closed from Oak St. to Ohio St., and the Chicago Ave. underpass is closed as well. View the Lakefront Trail map.
The Park District's nature gardens are smaller planting beds that contain only native plants. Visits to these gardens, with species often planted in clumps, are a great opportunity for patrons to learn how to identify native flowers that they may also find in some of the larger natural areas that can be found throughout our parks.
