Sports & Recreation

The Corridor region is an outdoor paradise, rich with public open spaces; picturesque vistas; pristine, natural tall-grass prairies; savannah forests; gentle, rolling hills and productive farmland. Life in the Corridor offers four robust seasons to enjoy life fully in the outdoors.

Those seeking an active life experience, especially out-of-doors, need not look any further. With a 5,300-acre, man-made reservoir, developed to protect valuable Iowa farmland from flooding, and 25,000 acres of surrounding woodlands that provide camping sites, hiking trails, water skiing, fishing, boating, swimming and picnic facilities --  the area has something for everyone.

The area also offers great spectator Big-Ten sports, organized sports and activities for all ages and abilities. More than miles of hiking and biking trails connect neighboring communities. And, the cities and towns in Johnson and Linn County coordinate programs for residents at their neighborhood community centers.

Iowa is a golfing Mecca with 410 golf courses (according to the National Golf Foundation). That inlcudes 276 nine-hole courses, more than any other state. The region has numerous nine- and 18-hole golf courses and three of the state's top-ranking links are in Iowa City and nearby, Amana, Cedar Rapids and Riverside.
