Not very crowded. Good 1 mile walking path that is well groomed. You can walk it several times for longer distance. And over 6' wide for easy passing and social distancing. Nice mix of wooded and grassy areas with some easy hill terrain. Follows the lake on the western turn of the trail.

This forest preserve is part of the immense Lake County Forest Preserve system. This particular preserve consists of two , non- contiguous sections; this one on Rt 45 is the eastern section. The other section, Raven Glen West Forest Preserve, is on Rt 173 just east of Deep Lake Road. This eastern section has two large fishing piers, and a very long trail, part of which extends to Miller Road. If you like fishing, this is a great spot. However, I prefer Raven Glen West for hiking.

Excellent walking trail! Very nice equestrian trails and horse trailer parking. Part of the site has lots of mature trees, I'd say half. Beautiful trees! The rest of the trail is more like prairie, but also very nice. If you're walking a dog in summer be mindful of that. Timber Lake is beautiful and there are two fishing docks. The water near the docks is no more than 3-4 feet deep and some areas have a fair amount of lily pad cover. Struck me as a place that might be good if you're fishing with something weedless. Top water lures would probably be good, too. Panfishing is likely pretty good. Besides the main walking trail and the equestrian trails there is an outstanding woodland walking trail. Nice parking lot and primitive toilet with hand pump for water. Very clean, located on Hwy 45 just south of IL Rte. 173.
