Waterfall Glen 3.5 mile hike in Darien
Details
Join The Prairie Club of Chicagoland (cross posted) at Waterfall Glen in Darien. Experience nature and see what's waking up this spring. Waterfall Glen’s prairies, savannas and oak-maple woodlands contain 740 native plants species, 75 percent of all the plants known to grow naturally in DuPage County. As a result of this rich variety, more than 300 species of mammals, birds, fish, amphibians and reptiles and another 300 of invertebrates use the forest preserve either year-round or during their migrations.
We will meet at 1:30, at the trailhead closest to the southwest corner of I 55 and Cass Avenue.
Directions: The main entrance is on Northgate Road. From I-55, take Cass Avenue 0.5 mile south to Northgate Road. Turn right on Northgate, and go 400 feet to the lot.
