Picnics, camping, and walking many miles of trail are the primary pleasures in this park. Very little of it is flat.

Located north of Savanna, Illinois. This parks topography contains V-shaped valleys, caves and some massive bluffs overlooking the Mississippi River. I have seen some rare plants here that I haven't seen elsewhere. Walking the trails will give you a different view for each season of the year. Several scenic views overlooking the Mississippi are available along the trails. A couple are just a short walk from the parking lot.
Predominate Feature: Massive Clives along the Mississippi River.
