One of my favorite places to run. The Vollmer Road Grove is easy to get to, has sufficient parking, and is a decent distance in length.I prefer a longer trail - this one is 3.6 miles if you do the whole loop - but its also very conveniently located. You can get a longer trail in Palos or Orland or Willow Springs - or Schaumberg - but Vollmer Grove is local and convenient.Also, unlike many of the other trails in the South burbs, the trail does not cross any public streets. This trail is entirely self contained, yet has several neighborhood access points in case you need to bail out for any reason (such as a turn in weather) or if you want to enter off the main road.The trail is wooded canopy for most of the way, but the last third has an open meadow to one side and woodlands on the other. Its a nice, easy run (or walk). Its only 3.6 miles, but when you are pressed for time or simply want an uninterrupted run this is the place to go.

Nice little forest preserve grove. shelter and tables, portable toilets, bike parking, generally flat 3.6 mile paved trail marked at the 1/4 mile points, in and out of forest and meadow, a couple of ponds and streams. draws a steady group of joggers, bike riders, and walkers. nice picnic facilities. occasional talk of car break ins so be aware.
