The western side of the Shawnee National Forest is very popular with people whose primary focus is visiting the Southern Illinois Wine Trail or the Carbondale Illinois SIU area and would like to take in a bit of the forest.
This side of the Shawnee Forest is home to hikes such as Little Grand Canyon, Pomona Land Bridge and Ferne Clyffe. A majority of Shawnee Forest Hikes are located on the Eastern side of the forest.
