Just 18 miles north of St. Louis, Missouri, on the banks of the Mississippi River, is Alton, Illinois, and the Meeting of the Great Rivers National Scenic Byway, also known as the Great River Road in Illinois. The Great River Road runs 3,219 kilometers along the Mississippi, and the roadway from Hartford to Grafton is designated a national scenic byway. It brings together historic towns and three major rivers around Alton. This Midwestern treasure features beautiful stretches of roadway cradled by the rolling waters of the Mighty Mississippi River and majestic limestone river bluffs.
