You do have to get there early if you want some shade and a place to sit. It's a park that rarely is empty especially in the summer time! I like that if you have kids in different age groups, there's something for everyone! Also like that it's not run down and it's clean!

My son loves fishing and he's participated in a few fishing derbies here as well as caught a few on a couple of quick trips out. The little ponds have all sorts of fish, but we've only really seen the bluegill and the sunfish. The trails on the west side entrance are grassy paths with various states of brush and shrub. There are even some stone formations for sitting or for the kids to play on. I've seen people jog and walk their dogs at safe distances, though now and again some inconsiderate patrons leave animal waste on the trails. I haven't been on the east side trails in a while, but from what I remember, they are more hilly. If you are in the area, you have to stop by... it's a natural wonder!

Pace has express busses that run from both Rosemont and the Pace transit center just south of Woodfield. .7 of a mile walk from the Randall Road park & ride. Please note you can cut through the parking area to the west end of Hickory Hollow through an open path. The busses run pretty much hourly though DO NOT run Sundays.

Wow, what a nice little gem of a park! Nestled within these…read more275 acres, this santuary (formerly an old quarry) is home to an abundance of birds and wildlife, and three ponds (that offer fishing opportunities). This is an ideal place for hikers, dog walking, bicycles (recommend knobby tires), and horses. Having walked the gravel trail, my gps tracked 2.7 mile circumference. I loved that this trail is not just flat, it gradually ascends and descends. I must have been on ninja stealth mode because as I turned a bend, I stumbled upon a deer not 10 ft away. Shocked, we both made eye contact and the deer took off running. Parking lot/starting point offers picnic tables, a modern canopy , and a single out house. Bring comfy shoes!

There are a bunch of slides, sings + even little animals + critters hidden in the "wooden" climbing structures. Our little guy (1.5y/o) had a blast running around + could easily access everything himself. I, of course, was super close by. A word of caution: there are A LOT OF BUGS! I have no idea what kind, but they are everywhere! They don't bite but they are a bit of a nuisance.

We loved the basketball court with a variety of backboards, sand and water area, swings and rocking school bus. As another Yelper mentioned, the loud train whistle leaves something to be desired. Peace and quiet, if we're going to get specific. Tip: Do not perch yourself on the bench right next to the whistle. Big mistake. This park is worth a visit. The nearby pool looked great too. Maybe next time.

It goes from Oswego all the way up to Algonquin, so that's a long way to go between the end points. Curve around buildings and rivers along it. There's enough room for bicycles, joggers, and whoever. Get on the trail from many areas. It goes a long way following the Fox River. This is a long ass trail. It makes it a way to get around without driving. Kind of hard to get to from where it starts and where it ends. It's too long for most people to walk along it. The part in East Dundee is especially scenic. It goes through the restaurant district. This goes by the old depot that's now used as a place for some people to hang or sleep. Has a long way to go for joggers and exercisers. It has enough room for bicycles and other faster transportation methods. There's plenty of parking spots along the way and you can find many places to eat as it goes through a few towns.

There is a path around a decent sized pond where many run or jog, and there are plenty of benches to sit on around the path, as well. A nice perk is that you can watch all of the cute ducks and geese all over the place. Be careful where you're walking because poo is kinda everywhere, though haha! There is a free outdoor workout area you can use with a good amount of different machines, and there are also canoes and peddle boats that you can rent. I haven't been here in the winter season yet, but apparently you can ice skate on the pond when it's frozen during winter, too. Don't let me just tell you how gorgeous this lake is, see for yourself! Many people also fish here, but during certain times, the lake has green algae, so I wouldn't recommend being that close to the water if there are signs out.
