Millview Park, Batavia, IL

Millview Park sits on the north side of Batavia and is anchored by a 30-acre lake that draws residents for fishing and non-motorized boating. A paved loop trail circles the water and connects to the Fox River Trail, allowing cyclists and runners to travel several miles without leaving pavement. Picnic shelters, a playground with modern equipment, and restrooms are grouped near the parking lot, while open turf fields accommodate pick-up soccer and casual frisbee. Mature trees line the shoreline, providing shade along most of the walking path and framing views of the water. The park is less than a mile from downtown Batavia’s shops and the Metra station, and it is adjacent to the Batavia Public Library, making it convenient for families who combine park visits with errands or story time. Street parking is available along Millview Drive, and the lot is plowed in winter, keeping the trail usable year-round.
