Centennial Trail Lockport Illinois Walk And Cycle Map
This segment of the Centennial Trail stretches between Willow Springs Road and Romeo Road just north of Lockport, Illinois, offering easy trailheads with parking and restroom facilities at both ends.
The route is open to both cyclists and pedestrians, featuring a combination of paved sections and firm gravel surfaces that follow the old canal towpath beside the Des Plaines River. Along the way you’ll pass through riverside woodlands and open meadows, with frequent glimpses of the gently flowing river, great blue herons fishing in the shallows, and occasional river otter sightings. The trail’s gentle grade and clear waymarking make it suitable for families, casual riders, and anyone looking for a peaceful waterside outing just outside Lockport.
