Description

Marovitz Savanna, in combination with wooded areas in the nearby Marovitz Golf Course, contains 9.1 acres of prairie and savanna habitat within Lincoln Park. The lakefront bike trail runs along the western edge of the savanna. Situated between Montrose Point Bird Sanctuary (to the east) and Bill Jarvis Migratory Bird Sanctuary (to the south), Marovitz Savanna serves as an important stopover within the lakefront corridor for migratory birds.
