MAKANDA, Ill. – It’s wintertime in Giant City State Park, which means it’s time for the second annual
Gnome Roam! On each of our seven trails (excluding the Red Cedar Backpacking Trail) there is one
winter hiking gnome just waiting to be discovered! Each gnome is holding a different item that is
recommended for a winter hike.
Directions:
• Record all seven gnomes by taking a photograph of yourself and the gnome
• Gnomes will be located along the designated trails
• Bring your proof into the Giant City Visitors Center for your super cool and FREE Giant
City Gnome Roam patch
• Due to the recent winter weather, participants will now have until February 15th to
discover all seven gnomes
For more information please call the Giant City State Park Visitors Center at 618-457-4836.
