What we’re about
In 2018, a group of hikers created the Chicago Outerbelt Trail that took existing trails in suburbs, The Forest Preserve, CIty of Chicago, and linked them together with neighborhood streets and sidewalks to create a 210 mile loop around our beautiful city.Paths are paved, crushed stone, and unpaved. This group will hike 5 - 7 miles each event at a 2.5 - 3 MPH pace as we make our way around the Outerbelt Trail. No week will be the same as we traverse forests, prairies, walk along rivers, Lake Michigan and see parts of our metropolitan area that most residents don't know exist
