About Riverwoods Park
Natural Escape
Found in Naperville, Illinois, Riverwoods Park stretches along the banks of the DuPage River, offering a refreshing break from suburban life. The dirt loop trails meander through lush wooded areas, excellent for anyone looking to reconnect with nature without venturing far from home. As you walk these paths, you'll feel miles away from city life, even though you're still in the heart of Naperville.
The park is a sanctuary for local wildlife and native plants, making each visit an opportunity to spot something new and interesting.
What You'll Find
Beyond its natural beauty, Riverwoods Park features a basin area, picnic spots well-suited for family gatherings, and a playground where kids can burn off energy. It's one of over 100 green spaces maintained by the Naperville Park District, but has its own unique character that makes it worth seeking out.
Things to Do
The network of trails invites you to walk, jog, or simply wander while taking in the sights and sounds of nature. Following the path along the DuPage River rewards you with peaceful water views and the gentle ambiance of riverside environments. It's particularly lovely in the morning or evening when the light plays across the water and wildlife is most active.
