Wild Meadows Trace Park, Elmhurst, IL

Wild Meadows Trace Park in Elmhurst covers 28 acres of open space with a 1.2-mile paved trail that loops around the park and connects to the Illinois Prairie Path. The trail accommodates walking, jogging, and biking, while a separate 0.4-mile crushed-stone path winds through a restored prairie area with native grasses and wildflowers. The park includes two lighted tennis courts, a basketball court, two playgrounds with climbing structures, and a large shelter with picnic tables and restrooms. A fishing pond stocked with bluegill and bass is accessible from a small dock, and adjacent soccer fields are used by local youth leagues. The park is located three blocks from the Elmhurst Public Library and within walking distance of downtown Elmhurst shops and restaurants along York Street.
