Carpentersville’s Raceway Woods isn’t just another park. This 122-acre gem gets its name from a thrilling past – the former Meadowdale International Raceway that once snaked through the woods from September 1958 through 1968. These days, there are still thrills to be had at Raceway Woods, as people flock to the park for mountain biking, hiking, horseback riding, and more. So, pack your sense of adventure and check out this unique sanctuary.
Raceway Woods is participating in Explore Elgin Area’s Stick and Stay program to celebrate serving the Elgin area for 40 years. This program allows you to win prizes when you collect 12 stickers from one of the 24 destinations participating in the program. Collect these stickers in person or digitally when you visit the attractions and submit them to the Explore Elgin Area Visitors Center to redeem your prize (as long as supplies last).
