Beautiful grounds to walk, bike, or run. Its really cool that they still have the half mile horse race track and starting gate from the original owner. It connects to Danada House through a tunnel that goes under Naperville Rd. It also connects to the trails in Herrick lake. Cool piece of history.

Great bike ride... good for all levels, including 6 year old on 16 inch bike. Not crowded and not deserted. Lake Herrick was beautiful that day... looked good for fishing too. Crushed limestone on the trail. Bit of uphill and downhill but nothing like Waterfall Glen!

Nice place. I stopped by when I saw billows of smoke rising off of Butterfield, and I just had to take a look. The photo I posted was about the best view I could get, I hope that everything was OK.

Well kept up preserve with terrific hiking and biking paths. Great place to take leisurely walks with friends and family.

Beautiful! Large enough to social distance and a variety of scenery.

Beautiful forest preserve trails for take hikes, picnic, ride your horse and photography!!

A nice preserve with some great views. Very clean and some nice trails.

Feels far away from everything! Beautiful spot.

One of the best forest preserves in the area. Fishing, sailing, boating, hiking, archery and camping

Great trail for hiking, waking and bike riding.

Lovely trails of over 5 miles with lake, forest and winds through equestrian center. Park either at equestrian center or plaza with Jimmy Johns/Chipotle and walk over. Downside is no direct entrance from Butterfield Road. Gorgeous trails though. Thanks, Dan and Ada Rice!

The trails in this area are amazing. Great routes, pretty and very clean

So much to see and great trails

The farmers are awesome!

Wild flower season is here...so pretty.

Went on a late fall day with few leaves left on the trees, so we were able to hear plenty of road noise at all times. Some decent views, saw some wildlife as well. Worth doing once on foot if youre in the area. You can smell the horse stables to the South when the wind is blowing. Parked on the shoulder of the road, which felt a little risky given the traffic going by. Id like to bike the route that connects all the other parks going west sometime.

Beautiful place amidst the noise of our age to breath in a bit peace and revel in nature.

Beautiful place in the fall. Great trails for running and hiking.

Nice event great food tents things for all ages

My sister and I walked the trails & talked to some really beautiful horses. We packed a picnic lunch, sat in the shade enjoying the lush green trees, pastures and of course, The Horse....in all of its grandeur.We found out that there are over 100 volunteers here who do a wonderful job with the horses and the grounds.

Phenomenal nature trails and just great place to hand out with friends and family

The perfect setting for a long walk.

Nice place to come and just relax, even if you don’t have horses or a fishing pole. Their Fall Fest in October has plenty of activities, including a visit via tractor-drawn hay wagon to their “antique” farm, with no tractors or implements newer than the 1970s.

Lovely trail!!

Amazing

Beautiful place to hike, bike and do all sorts of outdoor adventures. This is a great place to visit throughout the year.

Very nice

Beautiful and amazing number of l wildflowers on the trails!

People were friendly, and leader was knowledgeable. I left my email and they said theyd send list of birds we saw, but I never got it. So disappointed!

Lovely forest preserve and seems like there are a lot of nice things to see but I wish the website had more information.

Great trail for bikes, horses, walking, etc.

Awesome, good for picnic, trail walking.

Nice trails. Clean portapotties.

Thank you for preserving this park for our outdoor experiences

Great for a run or cross country skiing.I recommend checking the map to see all the entrances as it gives you a great idea how to use it to travel.

Danada is a great forest preserve. Great parking.

This is where I gave birth to my child, Dez. So it holds a special place in my heart.

Great place to take a stroll & reflect

Nice park!!

Another one of the many great forest preserves of the chicagoland area!

Beautiful grounds. Wonder place to walk or run

This seems like a great place for equestrian and bicyclists, but it is not one of the greater trails in DuPage for hikers. I hiked some distance on their main trail with my dog before doubling back the way we came. There was little shade but there were a few neat detours through mowed paths (instead of the standard peat gravel). If, however, you have a horse - they have a large pasture with a practice race track, and I believe there are stables across the street.

Beautiful and so peaceful!!

Has a lake and a dense forest which is allowed to be explored only on foot. No biking allowed. Very steep curves and uphill, downhill outside that 1.8 miles natural trail.

Loved the equestrian show. Lots of different styles of riding. I leaned a lot and it was fun.

Great forest preserve in Dupage County. They have long trails suitable for bikes and if you are willing to walk far enough it links up to nearby forest reserves like Herrick Lake. A great variety of nature from woods, to mashland, to prarie, and an area meant for horses.

Love Danada. Well maintained trails for walking, biking or riding

Open spaces attract us

Kind of a boring equestrian farm by wheaton college. the weirdest thing is I didnt see a horse anywhere. they were in the process of constructing a new building (september, 2018) when we visited. maybe when that building is done a horse will be on sight. interesting old farm implements and dairy building located here. pretty grounds and good photo ops. be sure to visit blackwell forest preserve when youre in this area.

Great place to spend some time outdoors

Nice wide well maintained walking/biking/riding trails

Walking trail passes through a few nice gardens. White gravel path goes around a large pond and contines up to Butterfield Road. horse riding trails.

Scenic and bountiful magical journey.

Great Facility!

All my coyotes live there.

Good place to get around nature. Some walking and biking paths.

Run, hike, bike, go horseback, enjoy the open prairie

Beautiful and relaxing place

Manicured trails for walking,running, biking, or horseback riding. Beautiful scenery.

Plenty of walking trails, might even see the horses. All trails are crushed gravel. Nice loop around a marshy area.

Great place for running and cycling)

Awesome place for some running

Great natural spot for walking

Easy gravel trails

Pretty quiet.

Amazing trails/nature. Can you see the forest beyond the trees?

Loved the Hot Cider hustle race held here.

Was there for a 5k, really well maintained.

Was there for a wedding very beautiful setting

Fun place to see some horses

Great hiking trails. This my dogs favorite place to go for a walk.

I was in danada fall festival. It was wonderful

Great for hiking, biking, horseback riding and enjoying nature. They have frequent events on weekends for families.

Very enjoyable in the summer for an evening walk

Nice views and good for a run or bike ride.

This is a diamond that the public isnt aware of. You need to stop at Danada Forest Preserve, Wheaton, IL 60189 and take the time to walk around and enjoy it all.

Best place in the woods.

Beautiful horses and trails.

Perfect place for kids.
