Adams County
QUINCY AREA
Located on the western border of Illinois on the Mississippi River where Missouri and Iowa meet, the Quincy area includes the counties of Adams, of which Quincy is the county seat, as well as Hancock and Pike. Both contain many charming small towns, with Nauvoo and Pittsfield being cornerstones of these two historic counties, respectively. Each is only a pleasant 45-minute drive away. (See pages 13-20). Quincy is teeming with treats for the curious traveler. Architectural marvels, culinary wonders, and na- ture’s evolving backdrop along the grandest river in America await your arrival. The thriving agricultural community delivers suprises like a rural museum dedicated to preserving 1930s farm life, to seven family-owned wineries and engaging farm stands and sunflower groves. A distinctive tapestry of past and present weaves the story of a city with notable cultural and historic milestones as well as contemporary visionaries creating new experiences to ignite your senses today. The first Underground Railroad stop east of Missouri was located in Quincy and is now a touring museum. Father Tolton, the first African-American Catholic priest in the United States, spent his formative years here. And, the charming city was home to America’s first Arts Council, established 1947. We’re excited to share our treasures and warm community spirit with you. Cheers to you and your “firsts” in our gem of a city!

PITTSFIELD AREA Pike County
Nestled between the two rivers of West Central Illinois, Pike County is chock full of history, natural resources and wild life. From 1821 through 1822, Pike County consisted of all the land between the Illinois and Mississippi Rivers that included, at the time, the small city of Chicago. The county has strong historical ties with Abraham Lincoln who practiced law and made campaign stops in the area. Pike County is dotted with many unique towns and villages including Pittsfield, Barry, Griggsville, Hull and New Philadelphia, the first town in the United States to be settled by an African American. Pike County leads the state of Illinois, and in fact the Midwest, in trophy-winning whitetail buck hunting and offers exceptional wild turkey hunting and fishing. The scenic area is home to a variety of additional outdoor activities with ample camping, boating, and golfing options. Lodging selections include state-of-the-art country lodges, guest houses, bed & breakfasts, historic hotels, cabins at the lake, and motels. Interesting shops, antiquing and tasty local eateries are around every bend in the road. Pike County’s small communities offer more than 25 yearly special events and festivals that celebrate everything from agricultural diversity and Abraham Lincoln and Civil War heritage, to jeep trail riding and Fall Color Run family fun.
