The Emiquon refuge will preserve 11,039 acres of bottomland forest, shallow wetlands and restored tall-grass prairie at the confluence of the Spoon and Illinois rivers east of Havana.

The 1.2-mile Frank Bellrose Nature Trail winds through bottomland forest. Seasonal wetlands along the Spoon River provide great opportunities for fishing, wildlife observation and hunting.

The U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service is acquiring the Emiquon refuge to protect, restore and manage migratory bird, fish and resident wildlife habitat, while providing increased public recreation and educational opportunities.

Before the area was drained in the early 1900s, the area provided excellent habitat for migratory birds, fish and resident wildlife, and the pursuit of outdoor activities made the area the tourism capital of Illinois.

When restored, the area will provide quality backwater lake, bottomland forest, upland forest, prairie, seasonal wetland, and marsh habitat for migratory birds, fish and resident wildlife.
