Enjoy Illinois says that our small town is the best place to see fall colors in the state; "Galena, an idyllic river town surrounded by tree-lined hilltops." Below are our other favorite viewpoints near the Inn at Felt Manor:
Our
favorite view in Galena (besides the Felt Manor, of course) is Horseshoe Mound 400 ft above Galena. It is a short 5 minute drive from the manor and you can hike, or have a picnic surrounded by beauty.
Casper Bluff offers beautiful views of the Mississippi River. There are historic Native American Mounds. The thunderbird effigy mound is truly unique to Illinois. The mound is in the shape of a bird and is centuries old.
About
40 minutes from Galena, the Mississippi Palisades State Park is home to some of the Midwest's most photogenic landscapes. There are about 6 overlooks to view the Mississippi River and relax on a bench or picnic table. You can also hike between the bluffs.
