When it comes to swimming, the crown jewel of Illinois is understandably the great Lake Michigan. However, there are plenty of hidden swimming holes and hidden natural pools that you can visit to see a more rustic side of the state. You will find these places dotted throughout the national forests and state parks, which means you get to enjoy the background of rocky cliffs and dramatic oak groves while you swim.
