Welcome to the Heritage Corridor!

As the President/CEO of the Heritage Corridor Convention and Visitors Bureau and on behalf of its Board of Directors, I invite you to experience the real fun that the Heritage Corridor offers for all ages.

I welcome—and encourage—you to discover the Corridor communities throughout Putnam, LaSalle, Grundy, Will, and Southern Cook counties. Located along the historic Illinois & Michigan Canal, the communities of the I & M National Heritage Corridor are rich in history, vibrant with festivals, loaded with shops and restaurants, and plentiful with recreation and leisure opportunities. The Heritage Corridor is truly all about real people and real fun…and it is all real close!

As you’ll find in our guides and brochures, the Heritage Corridor is the perfect place to get away and explore a bit…for an afternoon or an entire day. Or, take advantage of all we have to offer by planning a weekend getaway or a weeklong vacation within the Corridor. We think you will discover that the Heritage Corridor has a lot to experience!

I hope your experience here will make you consider the Heritage Corridor as a regular stop on your future travels. Should you have questions about the Corridor or the services we offer, please feel free to call us at 800/926-CANAL.
