Description EN
Many people come out to Tower Rock Conservation Area and are so struck by Grand Tower Island, that big rock column sticking up out of the river that they nver seem to notice the overlook available for viewing the tower and the river from the bluff above.

This cach will take you to the observation platform on the bluf above the Mississiooi and the Grand Tower Island. The view from that platform is simply stunning.

Grand Tower Island has a long an colorful history involving pirates, slavers, the US Military, The Confederate Military, quary operators, explorers, President Grant, Lewis and Clark, German Lutheran Pilgrims, countless artists and the Native Amreican peoples who lived in the area for centuries before we got here.
