About this event

Meeting Spot Waterfall Glen Main Trail, Lemont, IL 60439 41°42'26.4"N 87°57'33.5"W https://maps.app.goo.gl/7FVaaaxQQyxZ4Mg57 Optional Lunch Afterwards Barrel & Vine https://www.barrelvine.net/ 206 Main St, Lemont, IL 60439 https://maps.app.goo.gl/gTP1mQEXkRAZZgxUA Parking Main lot should be fine unless it is super busy that day. Hike Description Short option: Hike 2.25 miles and then turn around and head to the parking lot. It's really hard to get lost at Waterfall Glen. Everything is well marked and it's wide and flat. I would rate this a beginner hike. Long Option: Giant 9.5 mile loop of the whole trail. There is a bit of an elevation change but it's spread out gradually throughout the trail. I would rate this an intermediate hike just because of the length. We are walking at a 2.5-3.0mph pace. We are leaving at 10:15 with whoever is around. Trail is 50/50 crushed gravel and natural dirt paths. We'll start the hike heading towards the waterfall. There will be plenty of water on the hike.
