Waterfall Glen Forest Preserve

Its trails connect varied terrain, with Rocky Glen waterfall forming one of the better-known scenic stops.

Choose an entrance and route using the Forest Preserve District of DuPage County map. The waterfall parking area and main trailhead are different approaches, and some seasonal amenities close in colder weather. The photograph shows an earlier winter waterfall scene rather than present flow. Follow designated routes and bicycle rules; neighboring laboratory property is not part of the public preserve.
