Trailblazers:Miami Woods Fall Foliage Walk

We unite people to protect, promote, and care for the forest preserves in Cook County. Founded in 1998 by a small group of concerned citizens, Friends is now a force of thousands of committed volunteers and members. Through political advocacy, ecological restoration, and community engagement, we ensure the forest preserves will always be a source of recreation and relaxation.

About this Event: Take in the beauty of fall - fresh air, beautiful trees, and walking partners by your side. We'll take the bike path going southward. After using the pedestrian bridge to cross Oakton St., the group will continue walking the trail that follows the river. It's an out and back trail (not a loop), that meanders through the woods. It's not unusual to see deer grazing and hawks flying overhead in this river-edge landscape. Difficulty Level: The walk will be at a moderate pace on paved pathways. The pedestrian bridge is a little challenging due to an incline but its a short distance and provides an interesting view of the area. Parking/Meeting Location: You'll find us gathering at the very end of the parking lot near the pedestrian bridge.<a href="https://www.google.com/maps/place/Miami+Woods/@42.0299844,-87.8005014,17z/data=!4m10!1m2!2m1!1smiami+woods!3m6!1s0x880fc8c10a85b46b:0x9675cce7b8648eba!8m2!3d42.0299843!4d-87.7957381!15sCgttaWFtaSB3b29kc1oNIgttaWFtaSB3b29kc5IBBHBhcmuqAUQQASoPIgttaWFtaSB3b29kcygAMh4QASIaaimUUa10P2dubHl4ybD-Pt0vOfkh41gUK1kyDxACIgttaWFtaSB3b29kc-ABAA!16s%2Fg%2F1tdzglm0?entry=ttu&amp;g_ep=EgoyMDI1MDkxNi4wIKXMDSoASAFQAw%3D%3D" title="https://www.google.com/maps/place/Miami+Woods/@42.0299844,-87.8005014,17z/data=!4m10!1m2!2m1!1smiami+woods!3m6!1s0x880fc8c10a85b46b:0x9675cce7b8648eba!8m2!3d42.0299843!4d-87.7957381!15sCgttaWFtaSB3b29kc1oNIgttaWFtaSB3b29kc5IBBHBhcmuqAUQQASoPIgttaWFtaSB3b29kcygAMh4QASIaaimUUa10P2dubHl4ybD-Pt0vOfkh41gUK1kyDxACIgttaWFtaSB3b29kc-ABAA!16s%2Fg%2F1tdzglm0?entry=ttu&amp;g_ep=EgoyMDI1MDkxNi4wIKXMDSoASAFQAw%3D%3D" target="_blank" data-msys-clicktrack="0" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer">Google Maps </a> Meet your Volunteer Guide: Diane has a lifelong interest in nature and volunteers with the Forest Preserves of Cook County.
