Hike @ Busse Woods (Elk Grove) + Lunch @ Naf Naf Grill (Rosemont, IL)

Now that the weather is nice, let's meet for a morning hike followed by lunch!

Hike (easy)
We are going to walk on the Red Loop trail. It is paved and easy. We will walk casually. This will NOT be an intense hike or rigorous exercise.

Meeting location
We will begin by meeting at Busse Forest Elk Pasture. Let's meet at the north side of the parking lot, near the public restroom. This is clearly marked on most maps, but it'll also pretty easy to stop once you are physically there.

Meeting time
Meeting time is 930am. We'll wait till 940am, and then we'll start walking west and then south on the Red Loop Trail. If you get there after 940am, you might still be able to catch up with the group. Feel free to comment and maybe someone in the group can let you know where/how far we are.

Lunch
We plan to reach Naf Naf Grill in Rosemont by ~12pm. They serve Middle Eastern food and do a pretty good job of labeling which items are vegan. More info here: https://www.nafnafgrill.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/04/Allergy-And-Nutrition-Guide_20250422-1.pdf
