Warrenville Grove

A beautiful trail winding through gently sloped, pristine woodland with a historical dam and mill site at the edge of a river. The trail is short but connects to the Prairie Path close to Blackwell Forest Preserve and St. James Farm, with the possibility of a longer hike or bike ride. Parking is located on Batavia Rd.

Lived in Warrenville for 30+ years and never been there. Looking for fall pictures and this was beautiful with bridge and water. Nice hidden gem. Will have to check the trail out when I have time. Would have taken more pictures but HC pics were being done.

A really nice place to walk, bike, run, or hike. It's right by the river and it's very peaceful.

Warren-vile groove forest preserve is a nice piece of nature that has a big river In it .

Part of it used to be a dam and mill for early settlers but has been restored to its original natural shape.

You will hear woodpeckers and other birds singing mixing with the music of river.

A good place for hiking , biking or walking .

This is a Lovely place to visit. There is a trail to walk around on. And lots of picnic benches to sit on. . Flowers. Everywhere, Lots of Birds and animals to watch. Great photo ops and areas for them. Also there is a Bike and walking trail that goes to Naperville. Bring some Off spray as there is mosquito's and if you walk thru grass trails for and other bugs you dont want to bring home. Very nice and Peaceful. Also if anyone Pokemon Go"s it has a Gym and two stops.

Perfect little slice of heaven in Warrenville. I've lived here for 7 years and can't believe I've been missing out. The kids loved wading in the shallow water and jumping on the rocks. We saw many people on canoes which was cool too. Bring a picnic and just listen to the water.

Beautiful park! This is park that you can launch your boats at or come get some sun. Theres wonderful walking paths along side the gorgeous dupage river to boot. The park is extremly clean and well maintained. They have some benches to sit in as well. I highly recommend this park to go lauch your kayaks and canoes; or to go sit on a bench an listen to the peaceful sounds of nature . This place is fantastic!

It's nice to pop in and sit under the tree on the lawn or down by the river for a few minutes. Ultra premium little grove

Nice trails for walking and biking.
Had a small parking area on batavia rd, limited parking spaces.

Great little park next to the west branch of the DuPage River. Really cool arch bridge over the river and a great place to stop especially if you are biking on the West branch DuPage River Trail.

Great place for biking 🚴‍♀🚴🌳🏞 very beautiful 🌻🌷🌼💐🐦🕊🦚🥰♥

Awesome kid friendly trail with lots of greenery around.

There is a "hidden Jem" in Blackwell Forrest Preserve. They have a fairly well maintained, Public Archery Range. About a dozen Open Ranges, out to 80 meters. Good sized, movable Targets. Youth Ranges, with netting. And Wooded Ranges for the Hunting crowd. Truly a nice and clean, well maintained Ranges. Most everyone out there is friendly and more than willing to tell you about their Gear, and a few tall tales to tell as well. A few are willing to offer advice to help you improve yourself.... See you there, every other weekend mornings.
One negative detail:
They have recently started charging either a daily fee, or a yearly Permit.
Still worth it. But, I liked the "Free" Range better.

Beautiful, wide trails, water access.

This place is beautiful. Very well taken care of- you always see those white and green trucks parked in the entrance. There are A LOT of plants here!! As a horticulturist, I find this very important! Im always really happy and impressed by the scenery on my walks throughout this area. My dog loves it! There are always bikes and plenty of people, but it never feels busy and over crowded. There is a huge river that runs through it and a big bridge that locals are often fishing over. The woods are secluded enough and quiet but let out on main streets such as Butterfield and Warrenville. I love coming here and try to do it as often as possible.

Nice little Preserve with some great river scenery and a bit of historical information about the early mill that was once there. The bridge is a Civilian Conservation Corps construction and there are remnants of a dam that the CCC built (since removed as part of river restoration). Nice trail with links to regional trails as well.

It's a nice place for a 30 minute walk. It's a wooded area, quiet with a river that runs through it. You can ride your bike all the way to the path that runs along Butterfield Rd and connects with the 3 parks near there.

Nice trail for biking. Good location for family photos.

Has a great hill to play king/queen of the hill on. Try riding your road bike up it as fast as you can. You can see the Chipotle from the top.

Just love the the walking paths. Very clean and safe.
