Sand Creek Conservation Area, Illinois, United States


4.5 (7 reviews) Spent Ranking #12 in Decatur Nature & Wildlife Areas

Great Hiking and Equestrian Trails

Went on a hike while the weather was nice in the middle of winter. Everything was well kept and will definitely be going back frequently in the spring and summer. The Historic Paris-Springfield Road was very interesting to research and learn about after seeing it.

    Bluebells form a carpet in spring
    There are horse trails, but I walk my dog there. Parts are hilly, and parts are meadows. I've seen lots of wildlife and beautiful flowers there. The only disadvantage is you have to ford the creek - no bridges.

    Lots of Trails
    There are lots of nice trails here, both for hikers and equestrians. There are also several geocaches here to help keep things interesting. We really like all the Macon County Conservation areas.
