Here is an easy hike in Starved Rock State Park that passes three canyons, Kickapoo, Sac, and Aurora, with small waterfalls and canyon views along the way. It leads through dense woods to Saint Louis Canyon, where a spring-fed waterfall drops about 40 feet over ancient sandstone, one of the taller falls in the park. Mosses cover the damp canyon walls, and parking is generally available near the trailhead.
