Hoover Forest Preserve

Yorkville, Illinois

Welcome to the largest forest preserve in Kendall County, Hoover Forest Preserve at over 400 acres in size and stretching for nearly one mile along the banks of the Fox River.

Preserve History: The Native Americans cherished the land that is now the Hoover Forest Preserve because of the access it provided them to to Fox River. In more recent times the land was owned by the Boy Scouts of America and many of the old building are undergoing renovations. This preserve is also home to over 300 species of plants making it a great place for those who have an interest in botany. Please treat their home with respect. Come on out and explore!
