Spring Lake Forest Preserve

Highlight • Forest

At 560 acres, Spring Lake Forest Preserve covers a diverse collection of ecosystems. As you explore the area you'll pass through woodlands, marshes, meadows, and two glacial lakes.

Tip by

36.1 km

You'll get beautiful views of this lake to the south as you cycle along Otis Road. New Sutton Road passes along the south side of the lake, but the trees are thicker there so you don't get the same views.
