The Fox River Trail is one of the most popular and heavily used
trails in Illinois. From Crystal Lake to Aurora, the total distance
is 32 miles. The Fox River Trail passes through the touristy
towns of St. Charles, Geneva and Batavia. It also parallels the
Fox River from
Algonquin to Aurora. This might account for its
great popularity and heavy traffic.

The Illinois Prairie Path is one of the oldest and widely used
trails in the nation. The main trunk running from Maywood to
Wheaton is only 15 miles long, but with the additional spurs
from Wheaton the total length ends up being 55 miles. Most
of the Illinois Prairie Path runs through suburbs, but the
Aurora spur passes
through several forest preserves. There
are plans to expand the
eastern end to Forest Park.
