Carrington Park, West Dundee, IL

Carrington Park in West Dundee spans 80 acres along the Fox River, offering residents direct access to paved trails that connect to the 40-mile Fox River Trail system. The park includes a 30-acre nature preserve with restored prairie and wetland areas that support local wildlife viewing. Families use the playgrounds, picnic shelters, and two lighted baseball fields for organized sports. Anglers can access the river from designated shoreline points, while kayakers launch from the park’s boat ramp. The park’s central location places it within a five-minute drive of downtown West Dundee’s shops and restaurants, and it sits less than two miles from the I-90 corridor for regional commuting. A dog park with separate areas for small and large breeds operates year-round. Seasonal programs through the Dundee Township Park District include guided nature walks and youth sports leagues that utilize the park’s facilities.
