About Kankakee River Valley Forest Preserve District

Preserving open space helps to maintain the beauty of nature and provide much-needed serenity and solitude. Keeping natural areas free from development can help protect plants and wildlife, and help to ensure clean air and drinking water for our communities. Taking action to support areas of outdoor recreation can offer families and individuals the opportunity to enjoy activities such as hiking, bicycling, cross-country skiing, fishing, and other forms of entertainment. It's also important to provide outdoor and environmental education for people of all ages, as it can help foster an appreciation for the environment.
