A one-hour drive from Chicago drops you off in this rugged wonderland of hilly terrain. Although it is mostly used by mountain bikers and extreme cyclists, this 5.5-mile trail is great for hikers who are not afraid of tackling the twists and turns of the unpaved path. Just keep in mind that the trail can be crowded, so you might consider wearing bright colors and staying close to the sides in order to avoid being run over by bikers.
