Reviews of Starved Rock State Park
"It's always a gorgeous park. I would recommend coming early on the weekends as it gets busy during the peak season. Make sure you look at the park map and see there are other parking lots with different access to the canyons and trails."
"Located about an hour and half away from Chicago. This is a good place for hiking. In the spring and summer you’ll be able to see waterfalls up close. If you come in the winter, you’ll see like a winter wonderland because some of the waterfalls will be frozen and covered in snow. They have paved paths which makes things easier. Adequate amount of parking. You can pack a lunch and sit in the main picnic area. There is a visitor center with restrooms."
"Nice place to hike! 13 miles altogether on the hiking trails. Went after a slight snow and it was beautiful! Lots of wooded paths. Very well marked and maps. Nice visitor center with restrooms and refreshments. Waterfall is super cool. Several lookout points overlooking the IL river and lock/dam. Dogs welcome! Everyone here was very friendly. Second time hiking here and will return again!"
"This park is a long series of wooden walkways with various spots overlooking the Illinois river. There is a little bit of climbing depending on how far you go but overall not too difficult. Aside from the overlooks, there is a really cool canyon with a waterfall about a mile in. Have fun!"
"We went when the waterfalls were dry so I was kind of disappointed but still had a good time. Spent over 3 hours walking the trails and enjoying the sites of nature. Very beautiful park. Loved the canyons and the views of the dam. Will definitely be back when waterfall season hits up again."
