Levi Jackson State Park offers the beauty of rolling wooded hills and an historic site honoring the pioneers who settled Kentucky

This park is small but has about 8.5 miles of hiking trails. I hiked section of the Wilderness Trail and section of the Boone Trace trail. Visited the Defeated Camp Burial Grounds and spent a good amount of time in the pioneer museum looking at all the artifacts. Also visited Mc Hargues Mill which is along the Laurel river.

My wife and I briefly visited here during a road trip from Ohio to Georgia. We only had time to visit the mill historical area, but it was pretty cool and informative! There were also Christmas lights strung around, so I imagine this area looks pretty cool during Christmas time! There is a hiking trail right by the mill, so you could probably park at the mill and walk over just fine.

Dog Slaughter Falls

Getting There When headed towards Cumberland Falls State Resort Park on Kentucky-90, watch for a gravel forest service road on the right (FS-195).

The first one is about 0.8 miles down the gravel road, but I'm going to suggest that you start from the second trailhead, which is about 2.7 miles down the road. Starting from the f...

Explore Flat Lick Falls

The hike begins at the parking area, just before the restrooms. Following a short, paved path will bring you to a small overlook of Flat Lick Falls. While this overlook is nice, the real treat comes when you venture to the base of the falls. Look for a small dirt path to the right of the overlook. I've been to this spot several times and the path has never been marked, but it is maintained and ...

Pinnacle Knob Fire Tower

The trial-head for this hike had a very small parking area but there is some extra parking on down the road where you can park then walk to the start. The trail starts relatively flat with a small incline. As you go on it climbs slowly until you reach the steps that start the accent. There are about 50 steps to the top of the incline from there it is about a tenth of a mile up from there. When ...

The Cumberland Falls State Resort Park is home to several waterfalls, with the Cumberland Falls being the largest, most prominent, and most well known. It is also called the Niagara of the South due to its size and volume of water flow. It is famous for being the only place in the Western Hemisphere where a moonbow (rainbow caused by moonlight) is regularly seen, and access to the falls is open...

Resurgence Cave

Resurgence Cave in McKee, Kentucky offers a unique hiking trail that is both challenging and rewarding. The trail is of moderate difficulty, requiring sturdy footwear and a good level of fitness. It winds through dense forest, past towering rock formations and along the edge of a clear, fast-flowing river. The trail's main attraction is the cave itself, a large and impressive geological featu...
