The trail, which spans 158 miles and has more than 70 access points, provides many different recreation opportunities, such as paddling, swimming, ice skating, camping, fishing, hunting, and wildlife observing. Get up close and personal with the Fox River by planning your paddling adventure today.

Fabulous Fox! is participating in Explore Elgin Area’s Stick and Stay Trail to celebrate serving the Elgin area for 40 years.  This program allows you to win prizes when you collect 12 stickers from one of the 24 destinations participating in the program.
