Illinois River Hike

Overview

Depending on your enthusiasm level, you can do at least three different hikes involving the Illinois River Trail at the very northern end of the Kalmiopsis Wilderness: (1) an out-and-back day hike or backpack from the western trailhead ; (2) an out-and-back or loop day hike or backpack from the eastern trailhead ; or (3) a through backpack of the whole trail (about 30 miles), either west to east or east to west (a little easier direction). A 95-mile car shuttle is needed for the latter option.
