Boone Creek Conservation Area 916 North Cold Springs Road, Bull Valley, IL 60098

"Snow up to the knees today. We had the whole place to ourselves. Dog loves Boone Creek ❤️"

"We picked a perfect day to try a new place for a hike. Neither of us had been before. We LOVED the trail, and how secluded it felt. We only saw a couple other people on the trail. If you like trails that are more natural feeling vs pavement this is perfect for you. Also a great place to bird watch and just BE in nature. I will definitely be back."

"Nice little 2 mile walking path that goes through woods and open grassy areas. Goes in a circle. Has multiple benches along the way to stop if you need a rest or lunch or something."

"Great conservation area, with a 2-mile hiking path through forest (with some hill), along with a good sized picnic area and observation deck with binocular to view the creek, valley, and surrounding area. Bring something to eat and make a half day of it!"

"Very pretty. Mowed paths, thick forest for most parts. No risk of getting lost on trail. Set up for taking either a mile or two mile loop. You’ll need bug spray. Large picnic area overlooking small, scenic valley next to parking lot. Bathroom onsite."
