A typical inner city riverwalk. A nice place to stroll downtown with dining areas, sitting areas and great views of skyscrapers. If you are taking a leisurely paced vacation in Chicago I recommend checking it out.
The Riverwalk is one of our favorite areas in Chicago. The Boardwalk area on the West end is a nice grassy park which is popular for people to sit and watch boats go by.
Centrally located in the Loop downtown, the Riverwalk connects to Michigan Avenue and Lake Shore Drive and makes a convenient base to visit popular nearby districts.
The pedestrian walkway along the river is a great place to walk or jog, especially when it's quieter in the mornings. It's open 6am to 11pm each day. You can see some of Chicago's best architecture and iconic history.
Further down the Riverwalk, you can rent kayaks, take a boat cruise, do an architecture tour, visit museums, find street art (including evening art projections on buildings), or grab a bite at Riverwalk eateries.
There are public restrooms in the middle of the Riverwalk. All of the facilities seem safe and well maintained.
(Note our photos were taken before the July 2023 flooding.)

I love the view here. As of living in Chicago my whole life, this I have to say is one of the best parts of Chicago by far. Especially where the grass and the colorful chairs are, you can get a great view of the water, the boats, the skyscrapers. It makes a great area for view sighting, photography, drawing, and maybe a lot more things. Plus, when they do the light arts on the buildings, oh my goodness! It is a miracle to watch and look at the art on the building. It is a joy to be hwre
Beautifully renovated Riverwalk boardwalk to oggle at the amazing Chicago architectural fascade. Enjoy my walk here every time I visit Chicago.
Always a great walk, with many places to sit a spell and people watch. The new city skyline has changed thanks to Sales Force.
Take a quick walk @Riverwalk. You can always find a nice spot for a quick stop. Tons of coffee shops, fast foods and nice restaurants 🌟
