North Shore/Bob Lewandowski Park, Mundelein, IL

North Shore/Bob Lewandowski Park spans roughly 60 acres along the Des Plaines River corridor in Mundelein. A 1.5-mile paved trail follows the river, connecting the park’s three parking areas and linking to the regional Des Plaines River Trail for longer bicycle or running routes. Open turf fields accommodate soccer and baseball, while a playground with modern equipment and a separate splash pad serve younger visitors. Picnic shelters, grills, and restrooms are clustered near the main lot, and a fishing pier extends over a stocked pond. Mature oak and hickory stands shade the riverbanks, and the park’s position between IL 83 and IL 176 places it within a short drive of downtown Mundelein shops, Metra stations, and several grocery stores, making weekday errands and weekend outings equally convenient.
