Mission: The LPT travels through some of the most rural areas in Boone County. Views from the trail are dominated by rolling fields, scattered farms, and an occasional woodland. It is this rural flavor which gives the LPT its charm. The 14.2 mile asphalt trail provides a safe opportunity for long distance bicycling, skating, and walking with very few rural crossroads. It contains several interpretive signs which explain the history of the area as well as specifics about the rail line which once rolled along the same path.

Mission: Most trails in DuPage County forest preserves that are eight feet wide are open to many kinds of uses. They are designed specifically for hikers, joggers, cyclists, cross-county skiers and horseback riders. Over 40 miles of multi-purpose trails are available that are made of crushed limestone screenings. This surface is excellent for walking, hiking and jogging because it is soft enough to absorb some impact, yet is firm enough for bicycles. Unauthorized vehicles are prohibited.
