The Joe Stengel Trail follows an old railroad corridor for 7 miles between the town of Polo and the much smaller community of Woosung. The trail corridor traces farm country along a route scattered with trees. This is a gravel multi-use trail for horses, snowmobiles, bicycles and pedestrians. The trail runs through both Ogle and Lee counties.
