Yankee Woods are part of the St. Mihiel Reservation and Cook County Forest Preserve. Located just south of Chicago, this park is an escape from city life. Join your friends here and go for a bike ride or a hike, or just hang out at a picnic area or under a pavilion.
There are plenty of walking paths that wind through Yankee Woods and the adjoining recreation areas. Take advantage of the picnic areas that these trails lead past! Most of these trails will be multi-use trails and will therefore have other outdoor enthusiasts on them. Please practice trail manners when you're out!
