Heritage canyon is a 12 acre wooded nature walk located just up the bank from the mighty Mississippi river in Fulton, Illinois. When you walk into the park you are transported back into the 1800's as the path leads you past a log cabin settlement with its outbuildings and through a 52 foot covered bridge. Passing the old church as you head for the old mill water wheel and fish pond, you wonder how many weddings were performed there. A short walk up the hill and the brick sidewalk will take you past the Old Canyon House with its summer kitchen nestled close by its side. Then down the sidewalk past the Doctors House and suddenly you find yourself on the main street of a small town. There you will find the Blacksmith Shop, The Print Shop, The School House and other shops and businesses which could be found in most small towns of the 1800's. The canyon has many other surprises and treasures to see as you take your time and enjoy its beauty.
