Morton Grove Prairie Nature Preserve
Score3.6Small remnant tallgrass prairie and wetland in suburban Morton Grove offering sweeping grasses, seasonal wildflowers, boardwalks and marsh reflections. Best light is early morning or late afternoon for low sun and backlighting on seedheads; spring–summer for blooms, fall for warm tones. Easily accessible trails and a small parking area; no fee. Modest crowds on weekends — weekdays and sunrise are quiet. Great for intimate nature studies and landscape compositions close to Chicago.
