Rollins Savanna Forest Preserve - Nature preserve in Grayslake - 20160 W Washington St, USA

I recently rode The Millennium Trail and what a beautiful trail it is. I will let my photos speak to it's beauty. Great for biking and photography. Not much wildlife, but I did find a wild turkey or it found me. lol

Decent place for hiking but there's better options nearby that have better variety of trails to make your hike a little more interesting. Good: Well-maintained trails that offer plenty of mileage. Bad: You never feel like you're truly in nature due to road noise, and telephone lines and houses visible. Also there's is a lack of shade for most of the trail.

I grew up not far from here and was back for a visit. This was FABULOUS! The walk is just beautiful. Lots of amazing prairie flowers blooming in wild abandon! I look forward to coming again in a different season to see what’s growing. The public bathrooms were kind of disgusting - could use some attention. We returned in 2022 for another visit! Still love this place!

Wonderful trail. Peaceful energy from space. Lots to take in and enjoy. Restrooms. Wide trails and in good condition. Definitely a good forest preserve.

Really pretty. Very open since it's a savanna so be prepared for very little shade or protection from the wind. Some cute boardwalks to walk across. There's also a trivia trail, it's a bit challenging for younger kids, but they had fun at least in the beginning running from one sign to the next.

Nice wide gravel trails, even and totally flat which makes it a great place for bird watching. A few small ponds/marshes, mostly wide open plains. We did the main 3.5 mile loop around the middle and since there is no shade my huskies were roasting like it was the Sahara and it was only 50°. Large beautiful old trees in a very small portion make up about 10% of the trail for a brief reprieve from the sun. We went in Spring and it was very pretty, I would imagine it's really a sight to see when everything is in bloom. Small building with bathrooms and drinking fountains which will be great when theyvare turned on! Bring water with if you're walking the big trail.

If you enjoy birdwatching or taking their photos, this savanna is their perfect nesting habitat. I enjoy watching the swallows dive bombing on the water for bugs during a chilly and cloudy day. The big loop is about 3.5 miles so you will get quite a long walk out there.

Nice place for walks, runs or bike. Different vegetations than other parks. Can ride the short loops or take the long trails. Many trails to explore. Love the varied paths - crushed gravels to asphalt to wooden planks. This FP has become a favorite.
