Bald Eagle

Experience East Peoria Along the Illinois River Road

Nestled between the scenic Illinois River and forested, rolling hills and bluffs, East Peoria has transformed from a factory town to a bustling city known nationally for premier youth sporting events and its Christmas-themed Festival of Lights. Nature-oriented tourists can take a bike ride, run or walk along the River Trail of Illinois, one section consisting of a paved, 5-mile trail, and the other a 1.8-mile riverside section featuring boardwalks and large overlook decks. The city's new Riverfront Park provides an up-close look at a working river and its wildlife in an urban setting.
