Getting Outdoors

With large forested bluffs lining either side of the Mississippi River, it’s a sight to behold. Renting an RV is one of the best ways to explore the outdoors of this majestic park that is teeming with recreational activities. If you enjoy rock climbing, you’re in the right place. Rock climbing is allowed in designated areas in the park, mainly the Sentinel Area, Twin Sisters, and Indian Head, as erosion has caused interesting rock formations in these areas. Don’t forget to pack your rock climbing gear into your RV rental, and head straight to the specified area. It’s advisable to only attempt rock climbing here if you are a climber. The state park doesn’t maintain any of the rocks, cliffs or natural features, and they’re not responsible for climber safety or protection.

Exploring the Area

The little river town of Savanna is one of the oldest towns in Illinois and totally worth checking out while out on your Mississippi Palisades State Park RV camping trip.
