Sylvan Island Gateway Park Moline, IL 61265

"I once worked there trying to settle my federal student loans. They do it for city employees and volunteers but not ffor temporary seasonal staff that was often very cheap labor. That violates Equal Rights. Thanks for the lawsuit!"

"Great place to go for walks take your dog or kids and go fishing. Some good trails to take your bike on"

"A pretty nice park area. It has relatively new paved paths for walking or biking. The bridge provides access to a hiking area. The parking lot is a bit small but not too crowded. Lots of people come to fish, bike, walk, run, etc. It seemed like it was a pretty clean area too."

"Mountain biking is excellent, despite the lack of elevation. Very flowy with some moderately technical sections sprinkled in. These trails are always open, but they will get slick and saturated with water after snow melt, thaw, or heavy rain. The trails have some signage, but it is helpful to follow a local to get a feel for the system. There are a ton of loop options!"

"Sylvan Island is my favorite park located inside city limits. There is so much to do on this small island. From casual walks observing the birds and plant life to riding twisty-technical mountain bike singletrack. It really is hard to get bored at Sylvan. Fishing tends to also be popular activity at the island and if it's the right season watching bald eagles."
