Illini State Park is the type of park you think of when you think of big picnics and family gatherings.
With Illini State Park's rustic Civilian Conservation Corps buildings and riverside picnic areas, it offers beautiful views and a sense of history not found in many other parks. Named for the native Americans who once inhabited the area, Illini State Park is located south of the Illinois River between Marseilles and U.S. Route 6. The northern edge of the 510-acre park is bordered by the Great Falls of the Illinois River. In just 2 miles, the river drops 3 feet, creating beautiful, roaring rapids.
