#4 of 128 mountain bike trails in Illinois

#311 in the world

There's everything from open fire roads to tight technical singletrack to man made obstacles and stunts. This place rocks. Other trails in this area that are must rides are Independence Park in Marquette Heights and Dirksen Park in Pekin. Jubilee State Park is also worth a visit. Trails open Sunrise until 8:00 pm daily. All trails closed during and for 24 hours after any rainfall. Trails closed if there is a lake behind the dam.
