The water intake towers are a great sight. Definitely worth the ride. Go there on one side and return on the other of the mighty Mississippi.

The MCT Confluence Trail is a beautiful 20.5 mile long trail. The trail mostly follows the Mississippi River. The trail is paved and mostly flat, so it is not a challenging trail. This section gives you great views of the river as you enter Alton.
