Wanna get outta town for the day while playing it safe? Head to Midewin National Tallgrass Prairie, just one of 12 amazing hiking trails near Chicago that we love. The 19,000-acre prairie is located just south of Joliet and offers 22 miles of mixed-use trails for hikers, cyclists and horseback riders. |
