This is a 1,300-foot stretch of abandoned, original Route 66 that runs from Cabin Smoke Trail to the Sangamon River.

The segment is closed to vehicles, but is now part of Carpenter Park. The roadway runs through the heavily wooded land to where a bridge used to carry Route 66 travelers over the river.

From Cabin Smoke Trail, you can also see a small, 140-foot segment of Route 66 running to the north.
