Dog Walking in Niles
The Village of Niles, just north of Chicago, is a beautiful spot to
visit with your dog in Cook County. There are many walking trails and woodland
areas to explore, as well as a great choice of places to eat. And with two
animal hospitals in town, should Fido run into any trouble, you will be covered!
For a lovely hike through nature with your pup, check out the Miami Woods. This
forest preserve covers 113 acres and has a 1.5-mile paved section of the North
Branch Trail running through it. This trail extends a total of 19.7 miles along
the North Branch of the Chicago River, and is a popular place for walking and
biking. There are many picnic groves throughout Miami Woods to stop for a bite to
eat or a little rest, or you can continue south along the trail through the Niles
Park District for more places to see. You will need to keep your dog leashed
in the woods.
If
you are hungry after your big walk, head to one of Niles’s many pup-friendly
eateries where you can sit with your dog at an outside table. Play Book is a
sports bar with all the classics – wings, burgers, pasta, sandwiches or salads.
Goodi’s has a Greek-style menu, and Bobby’s Charcoal Ribs is a popular place
for a delicious burger or plate of ribs.
Niles has a lot to offer visitors with dogs, so stop by and check it out!

quiet tree-filled place to go for a walk with your pup. Well-maintained paths
are paved or gravel, and the terrain is easy. These trails take you along the

peeled for the many animals that call this area home, such as ducks and even
deer. The North Branch Trail system runs through here, but there are other
trails to explore as well. Pack your picnic and plenty of water for a lovely
day out in the woods with your fur-buddy on a lead by your side.

few miles south of Niles, and is the place to go when Fido needs a little off-leash
freedom. Set over 13 acres, this fenced dog park has everything you need –
benches for you to comfortably sit at, a doggie drinking fountain, waste disposal
bags and plenty of parking close by. After your pup has worn himself out at the park,
take a walk up to Mo Dailys and grab a bit to eat. Your dog can happily relax
by your side at one of the outdoor tables, while you enjoy a refreshing drink
and a burger, plate of wings, soup or specialty sandwich.
