50 Nature Walks in Southern Illinois

The only reason this didn't get a 5 star rating is because there are not color photos and a few of the directions are a tad bit incorrect. Watch out for the directions to Garden of the Gods as well as Heron Pond -- two of the top spots around here. My partner and I are area Realtors and we give copies of this book to newcomers to the region. It's a wonderful starting point for folks interested in light to moderate hiking, it does cover almost all of the most scenic and popular locations. Enjoy!
