Today I participated in a guided hike to see the bison, or as most people call them buffalo, at Prairie State Park. The guide was very informative and the hike very short so when we reached the bison and the guide turned back to the visitor center, I and a few others continued on down the trail.

I did not get close to the bison as that can be very dangerous but I kept them in sight and continued on the path that went to the west and curved around and came up north of the visitor center. Eventually I came to a road which lead back to the parking lot.

This is mostly a grass trail and during the rainy season could be very wet and possibly be tick infested. I would rate the trails as easy.

Overall, it was a nice day to get outside and enjoy nature and see bison in the wild.
