Dam No. 4 Woods-East — photo spot in Des Plaines River Trl, Park Ridge, IL 60068, USA
Dam No. 4 Woods-East
Small forested corridor along the Des Plaines River with winding trails, picnic pavilions, river access and seasonal focal points (mushrooms, ducks, deer, fall color). Easy, free access with small parking at trailheads, portable toilet and a brick pavilion. Best at golden hour and in autumn; after rain is ideal for fungi and saturated colors. Near O’Hare—expect occasional aircraft in the sky for juxtaposition shots.
