Detailed Description

Der Cave-In-Rock Nationalpark liegt am Fluss Ohio in Hardin County, Illinois. Der bewaldete Park wurde nach der ca. 1700 m breiten Höhle benannt, die durch natürliche Kräfte vor mehreren tausend Jahren aus dem Kalkstein herausgelöst wurde. Diese war einst Unterschlupf für Flusspiraten, heute gilt sie als Aussichtspunkt.
