From the southern part of Downers Grove:

 - Cross Route 53 at 59th St./Four Lakes Drive and go through the
   Four Lakes neighborhood.
 - Take Four Lakes Drive west.  There are three different
   little-known links between the west end of Four Lakes and the
   east end of the Green Trails subdivision.  They are drawn in red
   on the attached map.
 - Pass through the east part of Green Trails, and use Green Trails
   Drive to cross College Road.
 - Continue west along Green Trails Drive and cross Naper Blvd.
 - Turn right (north) on Olsen Ave (at the end of Green Trails Drive).
 - Turn left (west) on Arthur Drive.
 - Take Arthur Drive to the sidewalk behind Prairie School, and
   use the sidewalk to get to Charles St.
 - Take Charles St. south to Prairie St (right in front of Prairie
   School).
 - Go west on Prairie St. to Julian St.
 - Go north on Julian St. past Chicago St. to North St.
 - Go west on North St. to Columbia.
 - Take Columbia over the railroad bridge, past Ogden Ave., all the
   way to Iroqouis Ave.
 - Go west on Iroqouis Ave. to Washington St.
 - Cross Washington St. at the light and continue north on the west
   sidewalk to Apache Drive.
 - Take Apache Drive to Cactus Drive (first right).
 - Take Cactus Drive to Cortez Ct. (left at end of Cactus Drive.)
 - Take Cortez Ct. to Ketten Drive (right at end of Cortez Ct.)
 - Take Ketten Drive to the south sidewalk on Diehl Road.
 - Take the south sidewalk on Diehl Road to Park St.

The trip from the middle of Green Trails to IHP is 5.5 miles and
