Bowen Park in Waukegan combines wooded and landscaped areas with recreation and cultural facilities.

Its historic estate origins add interest to a walk, while paths and green spaces provide a setting for a quieter outdoor stop.
Use the park district’s current map and facility information to choose a route and check any reservations or programs. The photograph shows the historic Haines House within the park; its interior has separate access arrangements. Do not assume every cultural building is open during a park visit, and follow posted guidance around ravines, trails and recreation areas.
