An Urban Oasis in the Concrete Jungle.Take the half mile hike around the nature Boardwalk which is connected to the Lincoln Park Zoo.Take the Less Traveled fork to the right to go around the pond when coming from the south, as most people go left to go straight into Lincoln Park ZooOn a relaxing walk down the boardwalk around the pond, you will see some of the plants and wildlife native to Illinois.Look down in the water and you will see egrets, turtles, as well as fish.The vegetation is Lush and in some places currently taller than 8 ft.This is a great place to take a leisurely stroll, meet up with some friends, enjoy nature, or see the Fantastic Chicago skyline.Take time to stop and read the plaques around the pond it will give you some good insight into the care and thought that was put into this gorgeous location.A place to relax, unwind and enjoy the day.

Many complain that spending a day in the city is so expensive, but there are so many enjoyable things to do that are free! This is certainly one of them. Lovely place to walk around and enjoy the views (both natural and cityscape). Its right near the zoo, which is also free. The honeycomb structure is an awesome photoshoot spot, so make sure to take advantage of that!

This is such a gorgeous site to stroll around and take photographs. There is a beautiful view of the Chicago skyline, pretty walking paths lined with flowers and an amazing wooden arbor structure by uber cool Studio Gang Architects (Lead by architect, Jeanne Gang), which lends different perspectives when viewed from opposite spots (i.e., across from or under it). In addition, you can enter the (free) Lincoln Park Zoo from this area...worth viewing rain or shine...so pretty here!
