Trail Overview

Freeman Road follows the North Fork of the Illinois Bayou, and includes 3 water crossings, mud holes, rock scramblings, multiple campsites, and a Civil War Era cemetery. This route is a good starting point for the Illinois Bayou Granite Luge. During the fall season, the photo opportunities cannot be matched. During summer the Bayou offers great swimming opportunities to cool off.
