NEW! Join us to explore two DuPage County hotspots: Fullersburg Woods Forest Preserve in Oakbrook and nearby Lyman Woods Forest Preserve in Downers Grove. We’ll begin at Fullersburg Woods, where several paths along Salt Creek can yield both landbirds and shorebirds. Lyman Woods features large swaths of oak forest and is just a few miles away.
Note: Wear boots if it has rained recently. The trails can be muddy.
Directions: The Fullersburg Woods parking lot is at 3609 Spring Road in Oak Brook. From the north suburbs, take the I-294 tollway south to Ogden Avenue/34 West (exit 37B). Drive .8 miles to North York Road and turn right, then .2 miles to Spring Road and turn right. Then drive ½ mile to the entrance. (The sign is obscured by some brush but it’s at the bottom of a slope.) Lyman Woods is a few miles west of Fullersburg at 901 31st Street.
