Hidden River Park, Plainfield, IL

Hidden River Park offers residents direct access to the DuPage River, where a paved trail system runs along the water’s edge for walking, jogging, and cycling. The park includes a fishing area, picnic shelters, and playground equipment set on flat, open lawns. Kayakers and canoeists can launch from a small dock that connects to a calm stretch of the river. Native landscaping and mature trees provide shade along the shoreline, while a series of boardwalks cross wetlands that attract birds and other wildlife. The park is adjacent to a public golf course and a short drive from downtown Plainfield’s shops and restaurants, as well as Interstate 55 for commuting.
