Here are the upcoming events in 2023 to support your Kickapoo Rail Trail…

The River to Rail Ride is Back for 2023!

  • The River to Rail Ride bicycling event is back this year on September 9, 2023. Hosted by the Vermilion County Conservation District, the event will have four routes starting at Kennekuk County Park with all proceeds benefiting the continued development of the Kickapoo Rail Trail. Three of the routes will take cyclists to the Vermilion County Kickapoo Rail Trail section which includes the 1/4-mile Trestle Bridge 90 feet above the Middle Fork River. The fourth route will stay within Kennekuk County Park, perfect for beginning cyclists and families with young children. Registration price includes SAG stops and support along the routes, a t-shirt, and lunch.
