Beautiful park with lots of places and activities to do. The river that crosses it makes the experience even better.

Like the off leash areas, but wish there was a dog area for dogs to be completely fenced too.

Great place to take the pup Go to The filling station in downtown St Charles afterwards they're dog friendly as long as you have a leash They'll get your dog water. Kitchen closes early on Sunday get here before 8:00 at least otherwise only appetizers

I like the spots close to the water so my pup can enjoy the water! Nice spot to walk as well!

One of my favorite places to run and walk with my family. Lovely bridge and river view, quiet path. It's near the road but mostly you don't see the cars. Off leash dog park is right at the mouth of this park and my kids love seeing all the dogs.

This place is beautiful for dog walking. Unfortunately, nobody picks own dog poo... I wish each person not to be selfish and keep this place clean and beautiful for everyone and lovely dogs. Otherwise, this trail is wonderful!!

Clean, have lots of things to do and adding more.

Beautiful area

Huge park, endless activities. Playgrounds, bbq, fishing, biking.

Great river walk and biking trail.

Lots of space, good for walking.

Clean and fun place for walking near the river.

Good times as always with the grandbaby.

Is great place to spend time with the family, or just to go to relax your self. They have the kayaks, mini golf, pedals boat, food store, very clean bathroom, volleyball, tenis, exercise machines, golf course and much more. Plus the nice view and peaceful atmosphere.

Visiting from out of town. Great views of everything covered in snow. Only with the walking path was shoveled past the walking bridge. Made tavel with a stroller difficult.

Great park to go with the family. Lot of activities that you can do here, such as tennis, beach volleyball, boating, and walk by the river. Highly recommended.

Nice river walk trail

Nice Trail for biking and walking your dog.

This is a huge park that welcomes your dogs to run loose. No fences to make the dogs fight over territory. Paths lead you through the forest, over a wood and metal bridge then to the second part of the park. It's amazing.

Nice place but way too many people walking around without masks.

Public bathrooms with running water, picnic tables, paved paths and a bridge. Water park, band shell, recreation building for parties as well as wedding receptions.

Very nice park

Great park. Beautiful view of the Fox River and has plenty of picnic tables to have a lunch or dinner there with the kids. The playground is meant for kids 5 and up, so toddlers wouldn't have anything really for them to play on unfortunately.

I thought these trails and bridge were great. However this is NOT a place for dogs with any kind of social issues. LOTS of dogs off leash and care free owners walking them. I was not prepared for encountering as many off leash dogs with our 90lb socially awkward pitbull. 💜 great place though 👍

Excellent place for experienced trail dogs. Love that trained dogs can be without leash.

Spectacular area to walk run bike see the river and surrounding areas

Very relaxing and peaceful, great for before or after dinner quick stroll. It's great to spend time with your family and friends take your pets with you, they will have also fun.

Nice trail for your dog to explore. Easy access to fox river so your pup can swim.

Fox River Bluff West Forest Preserve earns 4 out of 5 stars for its pleasant mix of wooded areas and prairie grasslands, perfect for short walks. A paved path runs through most of the preserve for easy accessibility. The off-leash dog loop is a plus. However, the wood walkway under the bridge gets slick when wet and accumulates goose/dog feces. Overall, I recommend Fox River Bluff West for its convenient, pleasant setting.

Great place to get onto the bike trail. Dog friendly. Saw some cool migratory birds here.

Wonderful place to take your pup. Walk down the hill to the river. Not a long walk overall. Be careful & leash your dogs when you come up the other side because it isn't fenced there & borders route 31.

I love this park! One side of the park is grass and the other side is gravel/pavement. The dogs have access to get in the river. The trails, pups, and people were nice. I can't wait to go back when it's warmer.

Great place to take your dog. Just wish the people who bring their dogs there would clean up after them.

Great hiking trail

Grounds are maintained. The dogs enjoy the river. That's where the positive stops. Far too often, there is left over fishing trash in the places where the river can be accessed. Fishing string, lures, containers, etc. Likewise, there are people camping in tents with smoldering fires next to the river. On our last visit, we encountered a group of fishermen who were belligerent and verbally threatened us and saying they would call the police because our dogs tried to get into the water where they were fishing. Ban fishing and camping along the river in the off-leash area. We will not return.

I just love this park, its off leash and lots of natural Prarie flowers and plants and my dog just loves it

My dogs and I love to visit after the park. Special treat.

My dog Bentley's favorite off leash walk.

My dog loves to run free at the park and meet new friends.

nice winter walk

Beautiful!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Beautiful

Nice place love the hygiene..

Great walking , jogging, cycling path connects from Elgin to St. Charles

Great trails!

I have been to this park on mutliple occasions but this is the first time this year that we have visited. THIS PLACE IS INFESTED WITH TICKS!! We found a tick first on myself then we checked the dogs and found 7 in total on both of my dogs and myself. Watch your dogs please! It seems that this park is not what is used to be in terms of safety for your dog!!!

There is dog poop everywhere, but the dogs run wild and free. They enjoy it, and the water in the summer.

The view of the Fox River on the walkway under the bridge was incredible.

I only saw from a paddleboat, but looked beautiful.

Fun in the water and sun!

They have a bathroom and an unattended information kiosk.

My dog and I love the off leash dog trail. A nice walk and great views of the water.

Great to see the city promoting pollination areas!!!

Great quiet place to walk your dogs

Beautiful spot

Wonderful!!

Always love walking my dogs & meeting others & their pups here. So many trails & love the serenity & river

Dirty.

great view

Beautiful scenery and great place to walk your pups

This park is fabulous because they let you take your dog off leash! There is a non leash area and a leash area. There are bathrooms but of course they are outdoor bathrooms, so don't get your hopes up. With your dog, you can walk down a path to the river. When I visited, it was July, and the mosquitoes were horrific. My dog still had a wonderful time, and I would like to visit during non mosquito season.

Beautiful ride by bike.

Great view and pedestrian bridge

Nice parking lot with pit toilets. Paved path connects to nice foot/bicycle bridge under Red Gate Road bridge. Plenty of connections to paved Fox River trails. Open prairie n woods. Saw birds, a toad n probably beavers swimming. Very clean. Dog friendly with off leash area.
