Des Plaines River Bike Trail, Illinois
Photo Page 6

Some more open areas along the path

...and back to the canopy of trees again!


This is a nice wooded area between mile 19 and mile 20.

This photo (at mile marker 19) isn't that exciting looking, but it has been called the
"Secret Passage to Paradise"! - The last time that my friend cut
through this little side trail he ran across a nice couple enjoying nature to the fullest!
Birds, bees and all... There are just some many wonderful, and natural things that you see
on a bike ride!

OK, here's another one of the signs that you probably can't read online, but I left
this one in because it is significant... This is where the North Shore Path connects with
the Des Plaines River trail. You can head east from here to Lake Michigan (but that is
quite a ride... not just a little side trip...) The North Shore Trail (this is an
Easy/West route) also connects to the Green Bay Bike trail and the Robert McClory Bike Path.
