Cricket Hill is a nice spot along the Lakefront Trail with an amazing and unique view of the Chicago skyline. It is a great, free place for a relaxing walk, kite flying, or playing fetch with a dog. In winter, it is a perfect spot for sledding and snow, suitable for beginners and very small children due to its lower, less rough slope. The hills can be busy on weekends, but there is ample parking. It is a very windy area, so warm clothes are recommended.
Nice open space great for a picnic without the crowds of other areas.

Nice place for me and my family, you can connect with the nature.

It was really fun. Found the street parking at the Dog Beach a little further down from cricket hill. Lots of people with their dogs, but surprisingly still it was fun to be there. Must visit places. The view was not bad either.
