Chicago Riverwalk

One of Chicago’s true gems. Great for a relaxing walk, a spot to eat lunch , or people-watching. Such a nice public space.

A great way to meander, soak the atmosphere & architecture along the river . Many places to stop for a bite or a drink as you watch other people & boats go by.

The restaurants along the riverwalk in the summer are the best! I also love the very simple water feature with playful fountains .

The river is beautiful. The architecture along the walk is so detailed. Chicago is proud of their historic buildings unlike cities that tear down old buildings rather than treasure their uniqueness

Scenic views of the river , skyline, great view of the different bridges and boat activities. Plenty of restaurants to enjoy. Great place.

What a great addition to Chicago. From the Loop to Lake Michigan, enjoy a stroll on the pedestrian walkway, Food and Beverage vendors, enjoy the river boat traffic. Create memories!

A great place to stroll, get a glass of wine or cup of coffee and enjoy the architecture , River and people!

Love it both winter and summer! In the middle of magnificent mile and city , it’s refreshing to walk by the river

One of Chicago's newest and breathtaking experiences. Take a stroll on the waterfront or sit and watch the boats sail by.

A spectacular walking path specially when the weather is great. It’s a must to be visited when visiting Chicago.

No1 thing t see and do. So lovely and lively , especially in summer. There are many cafes facing river , green areas for peaceful sunbathing , and river tour points. Perfect for people watching .

So beautiful. I love coming at different times of day because it offers different views of the water. Can’t believe it is in the heart of the city . The water and area looks very clean too.

Absolutely gorgeous walk through downtown Chicago with views of the river that run through the city . You can walk either on an elevated walk overlooking the river or down near the water.

Walk along the river on the pedestrian pathway and wave to the tour boats going by, while the cars whiz above. (I recommend taking a sunset tour too, if you have a chance!)

There are excellent views of the city . Though you can take your bike here, it is usually too busy and narrow to get comfortable .

Very good attraction , pick your own tickets and enjoy the tour by watching the Chicago architecture !

The improvements made by the city have turned this area into a great way to spend an afternoon. Sun, water, beer , and so many dogs!

An ideal walk from the lake to the heart of the loop. Scenic and calming . Nice cafés and a beer garden .

Very nice metropolitan walk right through downtown. Pretty also at night with the lights from the buildings. River offers a number of boat rides . Kayak and canoe tours

This is a great way for people who live downtown or in the West Loop to get to the lakefront path and run without having to stop at all the lights. It's kinda pretty too!

It's nice to just sit on a bench and just watch the boats and people go by amidst a beautiful background

Great views of the city ! It's also pretty secluded from the heavy foot traffic so it's a great way to commute if you want to avoid the crowds.

Awesome new path along the river !! So many cute restaurants and you have to stop for a drink

The new section is amazing! Stand under the bridge crossings for an amazing photo like this one.

Take in the gorgeous scenery and really take a few minutes or hours to appreciate the incredible architecture that creates the city and molds it into a wonderful place to live and visit.

Great both during the daytime and at night, just watch out for the joggers!

A nice stroll in the city . Lots going on both on land and water for people/boat watching

The Riverwalk is beautiful with the half frozen surface!

Beautiful place for taking in all the architectural views in the heart of the city .

Great area, huge buildings and in the middle a nice cozy waterworks to enjoy a sunny afternoonwalk

Bike is a good idea to go al along the riverwalk ! Stop to have a beer in some of the nice bars next to the river

Great place to check out Chicago! I recommend the architecture tour .

Pop ups in the summer like The Hideout and City Winery are the best.

Great view of Chicago's architecture !

First walked it on a date in h.s. & found it super romantic & beautiful. Now its great people watching & a serene sit to take in our city

Coffee at Tiny Tapp is great...also there are clean restrooms along this walk!

When the weathers nice a beautiful place to run surrounded by the city .

Very alive ❤️ great for boat rides ,walk , restaurants and in the heart of the city .

One of the most spectacular sights you'll ever get in Chicago. Bonus points if you arrive at sunset .

For the first 10 minutes of each hour during the day, Centennial Fountain at the east end shoots water in a great arc across the river . Read more

Wonderful walk along the river . Bikes available for rent. Nice bars for refreshing.

Great views of Chicago’s architecture . Visit over St. Patrick’s Day to see the river dyed green.

If you have time walk the wife thing. It’s worth it.

Our concierge Catherine at Sax Chicago says, "Run or walk along the newly revamped Chicago Riverwalk. Stop off at the cafés or rent a bike and head East to Lake Michigan."

Great place to start when arriving at the city . Take a river cruise to get familiarized with the skyline.

Great simple, hidden spot in the city where you can just enjoy the skyline, scenary and the city in tranquility

An awesome area to view the dyeing of the river for St. Patrick's Day.
