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.
Universal Access
This trail is universally accessible and paved.
Highly-Trafficked
This trail is highly-trafficked by foot and bike. Best etiquette is to keep right at all times, assuming bikers may zoom by at any time. Joggers and fast walkers will do the same - this trail can get a bit crowded on weekends.

MyHikes is an indie web platform aimed to make exploring public trails easier for everyone. The site has no investors and is owned and operated by one person, Dave Miller (Founder & Admin). As the Founder, main contributor, and doer-of-all-things for MyHikes, I share my trips with over-detailed write-ups for fun on a volunteer basis and I believe that public trail information should be available to everyone.
It takes a lot of time 🕦, money 💰, and effort (including espresso shots ☕) to run MyHikes, including hiking , mapping , writing , and publishing new trails with high-quality content... along with building new features, moderating, site maintainance, and app development for iOS and Android . I simply ask that if you find MyHikes' trail guides helpful to please consider becoming a Supporter to help keep the site, iOS, and Android apps available to everyone.
Supporters unlock website and in-app perks with a one-time payment of $25 (you renew) 😎👍. Or you can simply make a Donation of your choice without a MyHikes user account. Otherwise, telling your friends about MyHikes is the next-best thing - both quick and free 🎉
Thanks for visiting MyHikes and have a great hike!️
