Travel Directions
Last Updated: October 21, 2009
Here's one easy way for you to get directions and a map which you can print:
- First go to Google Maps.
- Click on Get Directions.
- Type, or Cut & Paste, this info: IL-1 & Lamb Rd, Cave-In-Rock, IL 62919 into the second of the two empty boxes next to the Get Directions button.
- In the first empty box, type your starting address (your house address), with the street address, city, state, and zip code, separated by commas. It should look like this: P.O. Box 332, Royal Oak, MI, 48068
- Click on the Get Directions button.
This will get you to Lamb road, which goes East off of Il-1 (or Route 1). There's only one way you can go on Lamb road, so go down it and follow the signs that say "to HogRock." You will see the first of these signs at Lamb road itself. Now you're all hooked up!
One other helpful note: some programs don't recognize hyphens, so you may want to try Cave-In-Rock as Cave In Rock if you're having trouble finding it.
Cave-in-Rock Ferry
The Cave-in-Rock Ferry provides service across the Ohio River between IL 1 and KY 91 at Cave-in-Rock, Illinois. The ferry is FREE and runs as needed between the hours of 6:00am and 9:50pm.
