Riverwalk

Reviewed By janeoctric - Naperville, United States

Absolutely love the riverwalk- There is an upper brick, lower concrete walk or jog you can take, I do most days along the river- Things to see, plants, flowers, fish, ducks, kayakers, diverse families, water fountains, covered bridges, occasional snakes, frogs, a solo heron. Great place for subrises or sunsets- No bikes allowed- It is lit so you can even walk at dusk- Lots of people of all ages, babies in strollers, on it- Early am more quiet and serene- There is a brand new playground west of the quarry. Clean bathrooms, accessibility to lots of restaurants. Paddleboats, kayaks for rent May to September plus a riverwalk cafe in season near rotary hill. You can walk up to the top of the Carilllon and see the entire area from above during certain weekend hours as well.
