Walk in Chicago # 3, the north of the Loop and Navy Pier

This self-guided walk is a good complement to Walk in Chicago # 1 and Walk in Chicago # 2 for exploring downtown. This time, it will be on the recreation side as it passes through the Children's Museum and the Navy Pier rides. It also runs along the river then the lake and explores the northern part of the Loop.

Count between 90 minutes and 4 hours to complete it depending on what you decide to do along the way. It is about 3 miles long.

It can be combined with walk in Chicago # 4 (the Magnificent Mile and the Gold Coast) for a complete introduction to Chicago if you have already done walks 1 and 2.

NB: if you have not already done so on another site, you can read the philosophy and general content of this itinerary by opening the “About the walks” link above or below.
