Chicago Transit Hikes (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781950843114)

Who says you need to drive hours out of town to take a walk in the woods? Chicago's robust network of public transit means that the region's forest preserves, rivers, swamps, dunes, and even just the lakefront trail are all within easy reach. Featuring more than thirty hikes easily accessible by CTA, Metra, or the South Shore Line, Lindsay Welbers's Chicago Transit Hikes is a unique guidebook that aims to answer the most common questions an aspiring transit hiker might have, from "How do I use Metra?" to "What's the most remote spot I can hike to in Cook County?" Whether you want to explore the length of the Des Plaines River Trail or just take a day trip to the Skokie Lagoons, this book offers everything you need to plan ahead, so that you can spend your days outdoors, rather than sitting in traffic.
