Sightseeing

This is the true park entrance on the Kentucky side of the state line. It will be the first and only exit to your right after exiting the tunnel. If you want to see some of the best mountain and valley views drive up to the Pinnacle lookout 👀

Traveler advice

Customs and culture

Southern Culture

This is a very small town with families that have been around forever so just be mindful and respectful of people’s property. There’s lots of beautiful views and sights to see but please don’t trespass! There’s tons to do on public property in the surrounding parks. We all have a southern hospitality approach and appreciate when outsiders extend us the same kindness :)
