1. Rock Bridge Trail #207
Overall Ratings
5.0 based on 47 reviews

We had to use Google maps and the All Trails app to find this gem of a hike but it was worth it. This is the only Natural Bridge in the area that still has water flowing under it. The waterfall is also fun. All Trails rated this as a moderate hike and I agreed with the assessment.

4. Auxier Ridge Trail #204

We did the Double Arch trail, then Auxier Branch trail to Courthouse Rock, then took the Auxier Ridge trail back to the parking lot. It was an epic hike. Probably around 7 miles total. Lots of ups and downs and climbing. Took us about 5 hours to complete the loop. Not for the faint of heart. Take plenty of water and snacks. Hiking boots are a must to protect ankles while walking over rocks and tree roots. So beautiful from the vistas looking out from the top of the ridges to the lush, moss-covered terrain in the gorge. It was a long hike but worth it.

6. Kentucky Reptile Zoo
Overall Ratings
4.0 based on 71 reviews
There are few reptile collections that can compare to the diversity of animals on display at the Kentucky Reptile Zoo. Animals on exhibit range from an 18 foot reticulated python, our largest resident, to many types of venomous snakes such as cobras, mambas, cottonmouth, copperheads, taipans and rattlesnakes, to an American Alligator. One of the favorite areas for kids is our Turtle Tracks Area, where both tortoises and aquatic turtles can be seen. Live reptile shows at 1, 3 and 5pm.

The exhibit was well organized. The guides were very knowledgeable. The reptiles were all identified by the area where they live and information about the lengths they can grow to were posted on each aquarium. Some of the reptiles were very active. I would go again!
