I live close to this trail and walk/bike on it often. It was completely resurfaced this summer and is better than when it was new. New benches to rest on, new garbage bins on poles and new signs. Part of this trail goes through a very shaded, wooded area - nice on hot summer days! This trail currently runs from the west edge of Morton to downtown East Peoria and will soon have the western edge finished to link up across the river with Peoria.

Soon will connect with the Bob Micheal bridge to connect to the Pimiteoui Trail along the Peoria riverfront. There is also a long going dispute over the Kellar Branch Trail which will connect the Pimiteoui Trail to the Pioneer Parkway extension. hopefully popping up here soon. But other wise a great trail. most of it is paved but after you go through the tunnel its gravel. you have to get of the trail and on to the road because the bridge is out but will soon be in service. The trail pops up again near Arbys. That will take you to the East Peoria riverfront park. Phase II of the trail is down the road a bit but is only 1.8 miles and features a 1200 fot boardwalk keep riding:)
