Limekiln Springs Hike this Saturday

Where?

Hiking the Limekiln Springs Trail in Ullin, Illinois.

When?

Hike starts at 9:00 AM and will go until about 1:00 PM at most on Saturday, September 9, 2023.

Meet at Limekiln Springs Trail (West Trailhead). Take Shawnee College Road (heading east) from Ullin and turn left (head north) on Cache Chapel Road. Trailhead will be on your right (sign is present).

What to Bring?

Bring plenty of water and a snack.

It is recommended you wear sturdy boots, long pants, and a light long-sleeved shirt. There are many mosquitoes in this area (swamp) this time of the year. Wear (and bring) plenty of bug spray and a head net if you commonly get bit a lot.

Hike Information:

The hike will be around 3 to 5 miles (out and back).

Hike is free and open to the public.

Please enjoy other days and events provided by Cache River Days in Ullin.

I’ll see you on the trail!

Super thanks to the Village of Ullin, Shawnee Community College, Cache River Days organizers, Cypress Creek National Wildlife Refuge, Cache River State Natural Area, and Friends of the Cache River Watershed for making this free community event possible.

Please Support Hiking with Shawn

Alrighty folks, I hope you have enjoyed this content. I provide it for free and it takes a while to create. If you would be so kind enough to support my efforts, you can do so by sharing this post with others, especially on social media. Be sure to subscribe to my YouTube Channel to see my latest videos, shorts and live streams. Follow me on Facebook, Instagram, Twitter and TikTok for unique content that you will only find on those pages. You might also join my Southern Illinois Hiking & Outdoor Resources Group on Facebook, too!

You can also support me by becoming a Patreon Supporter for as little as $3/month and you can cancel anytime (no contracts or catches). Patreons get access to extra features, exclusive articles, sticker packs, gifts and more. Consider buying official Hiking with Shawn Merchandise as another way to support me. I spend a lot of money on Hiking with Shawn and because of extremely high public land permit fees, I make very little money in return so everything helps.

Thanks again for checking out another one of my articles and until next time, I’ll see you on the trail!
