The Bloomingdale Trail to Humboldt Overlook in Chicago, Illinois is an easy 1-mile out-and-back walk that leads from N Spaulding Ave to the overlook above N Humboldt Blvd.
This short section of the Bloomingdale Trail is less of a hike and more of a short out-and-back walk that leads to the "overlook" that sits above N Humboldt Blvd.
