At 40 acres, Tante Park is one of the quietest and most secluded of
Pekin's natural area parks. Its Woodland Wildflower Trail runs
along a creek bank, and past many old growth trees. The cache is
located on park property along the edge of the tree line. The park
closes at 10pm. This cache was placed with permission from the
Pekin Park District. Make sure to record the 4 digit code found
inside the cache into your Illinois River Road geocaching log book
and guide.
The Illinois
River Road National Scenic Byway stretches 291 miles along the east
and west sides of the Illinois River from Ottawa to Havana, and is
notable for its natural and historic qualities. The route was
designated a National Scenic Byway in 2005 – one in 150 of
America’s Byways® throughout the U.S. Its six gateway
communities include Ottawa, Princeton, Peoria, Pekin, Canton, and
Havana with several other portal communities along the byway.
This cache is one of 15 placed in the Pekin Gateway for the
Illinois River Road series. The series has a total of 90 geocaches.
Collect 10 of the 15 four-digit cache codes from each gateway to be
eligible for a specially designed Illinois River Road coin (one
unique coin for each gateway community). Please visit
