Getting Outdoors

While camping at Green River State Park, bring your horse along and enjoy time exploring over ten miles of trails that wind through the park. Specific areas are designated for campers with horses. The park doesn't rent horses or provide trail guides; these are self-guided trails. Before bringing your horse from out of state, you'll need to obtain a current health certificate and provide documentation of a negative Coggins test. The trails are multi-use, so be aware of other visitors using the trails while horseback riding.

Exploring the Area

While visiting Illinois, you'll want to check out the Ronald Reagan Boyhood Home National Historic Site. The house, located in Dixon, is where the 40th U.S. president spent part of his youth, moving into this home in 1920 when he was just nine years old. Reagan lived in the home until he graduated from Eureka College in 1932. The home has been fully restored and is now a historic site where visitors can learn more about Ronald Reagan before he left Illinois for Hollywood and eventually the White House.

Head over to Amboy and visit the Amboy Depot Museum, a former rail station that was built to be the headquarters of the Illinois Central Railroad in the late 19th century. The two-story building was placed on the National Register of Historic Places since being fully renovated and restored to its former glory. The grounds that were once the rail yard have been preserved and made into a city park. The museum, housed within the depot, has a retired steam engine and a caboose. A fully restored one-room schoolhouse is next to the depot and a great place to go to step back in time.
