Illinois 84 is part of the Great River Road in the hilly northwest corner of Illinois, an area the glaciers missed. From Savanna the road climbs into rolling hills with views over the Mississippi valley, passing Mississippi Palisades State Park and Hanover on the way to Galena. Galena's preserved 19th century main street is a common stop for riders.
