Description
Legion Park Natural Area features over nine acres of native prairie and riparian habitat, located between the North Branch of the Chicago River and the North Shore Channel Trail within Legion Park in the West Ridge community. This natural area is situated just off a popular multiuse trail which traces the river and leads visitors past other nearby natural areas at River and Ronan Parks. Mulch paths within the prairie habitat offer additional opportunities to get up close to nature.
