The 606 aka the Bloomingdale Trail & Park is the Chicago's newest recreational track 2.7 miles long one-way.

This is where I run most of my short runs, last year while training for my first triathlon as well as the Chicago's marathon, this was were most of my miles were ran. Wish there was more water fountain's and maybe a washroom but I enjoy it very much.

2.6 miles of trees and Lush vegetation. In some parts the vegetation is over running the walkway, I don't know why this hasn't been trimmed back.
You will see flora and fauna in a multitude of colors. Red, yellow, pink, white, purple, orange, blue, and of course lots of green. For an enjoyable experience take the 2 small nature trails that are very close to both ends of the 606. Be sure to look for the large mushrooms as it is nature in the wild.
There are water fountains at the 1.5 and 1 mile markers in the middle. But there are no washrooms.
The 606 is surprisingly Litter free, considering I only counted 6 garbage can locations. I did see lots of cigarette butts on the ground, so maybe smoking should be banned from the 606.
It's a shame that there is graffiti on most of the signs. I took a picture of one of the only two graffiti free signs. The city should clean up the graffiti.
Dogs and dog owners should be banned from the 606. Dog owners are not picking up the dog poop. Watch out for feces on the ground. I'm also not a big fan of having a dog sniff me while I'm trying to take a leisurely stroll.
Be on the lookout for crazy bike riders as they seem to think that this is a race track.
If you can go during the week it's less crowded and much more enjoyable.

Great for biking to avoid traffic. Great for walking/running to just enjoy the atmosphere. Skateboarding/rollerblading the hills is a bunch of fun.

Well maintained, well lit, lots of interesting tiny parks off the sides, beautiful art and scenery for being in the middle of the city. Drop off the south side of the trail to find some beautiful and insanely talented street artist's work
