    GALENA

    Experience the charm of small-town America

    Just a three-hour drive from Chicago sits Galena, a charming river town seemingly frozen in time. Amidst the wineries, horse-drawn carriage rides and quaint bed and breakfasts, you’ll discover how easy it is to reconnect in a place where life slows down.

    Here, you can shop one-of-a-kind boutiques that line historic Main Street. Sample the local wine scene in festive tasting rooms and scenic vineyards. Savour local delicacies and European dishes at quaint cafes and restaurants. And explore scenic bluffs and valleys on horseback or from high above in a hot air balloon.
