Deer Grove #5
Deer Grove West Forest Preserve
1700 N Quentin road
Situated in northwestern Cook County, Deer Grove was the first preserve acquired by the Forest Preserve District, beginning with 500 acres in 1916. Deer Grove’s rolling upland forest is interspersed with wooded ravines and wetlands with picturesque creeks meandering through this tract.
We will start from the Mountain Bike Staging Area , Deer Grove #5, and walk west on the Yellow trail. At the westernmost parking lot you can either take the orange trail back for 3.5 miles, continue on the yellow to the black trail for 4.25 miles or do the whole yellow trail for 6 miles.
Dogs are welcome as long as they are on a leash.
