A 20 minute walk from the Union League Club and located on the south bank of the Chicago River, the award-winning, pedestrian-friendly Chicago Riverwalk stretches 1.25 miles from Lake Michigan to Lake Street. Along the way you’ll discover cafes, wineries and bars. Some Favorites are City Winery, Beatnik on the river, Pizzeria Portofino (Great for lunch and a favorite), and Chicago Cut Steakhouse
Lakefront Trail
Where we got engaged! One of the most scenic attractions in Chicago has to be the Lakefront Trail. The 18-mile long trail hugs the coast of Lake Michigan. From calm, sandy beaches to sprawling park land, to some of the best views of the Chicago skyline, the lakefront path is one of the city's great treasures, enjoyed by visitors and locals alike. North Avenue Beach and Oak Street Beach are two of our favorite places to walk and enjoy the views of the Chicago Skyline!
