点评:We did a day trip to the park. This is a very nice state park in Eastern Kentucky.
All Kentucky State Parks have free admission (2025).
We wanted to camp there, but they're redoing the campground this summer.
Start your day at the Welcome Center. This is where you buy your tickets for the cave tours. They also have a gift shop & restrooms.
There's 5 tours, but there's only 3 that do daily tours.
X cave starts at the Welcome Center.
Saltpeter starts at the Welcome Center.
Cascade cave is 3.6 miles from the Welcome Center & you have to drive there.
I was interested in the Cascade Cave, but my husband is mobility impaired & he can't climb 250 stairs.
From the Welcome Center be sure & do the Natural Bridge Trail. it's only 1 mile there & back & totally worth it! The bridge is great - very scenic.
I saw that this trail is accessible & I have to say - it's not! He made it to the bridge only with a lot of help from me. There's stone stairs.
The 3 bridges trail is very popular for hikers, but the trail is on the high end of moderate. I was able to do part of it, but ended up at the lodge overheated.
Thank you to the conservation officer who took me back to the Welcome Center!
There's a total of 5 bridges in the main park & 1 bridge at the Cascade area.
I wish I had more time to do more hiking in cooler weather!
翻译:我们去了公园一日游。这是肯塔基州东部一个非常漂亮的州立公园。
所有肯塔基州立公园都免费入场(2025)。
我们本来想在那里露营,但他们今年夏天正在重建营地。
从游客中心开始您的一天。您可以在这里购买洞穴之旅的门票。他们还有礼品店和洗手间。
一共有5个游览项目,但只有3个是每日游览。
X洞穴的起点在游客中心。
硝石洞穴的起点在游客中心。
卡斯凯德洞穴距离游客中心3.6英里,您需要开车前往。
我对卡斯凯德洞穴很感兴趣,但我丈夫行动不便,爬不了250级台阶。
从游客中心出发,一定要走天然桥步道。往返只需1英里,绝对值得!这座桥很棒,风景优美。
我看这条步道是可以通行的,但我不得不说——它不行!他得靠我多方搀扶才能走到桥上。桥上有石阶。
这条三桥步道很受徒步爱好者欢迎,但难度适中。我走了一部分,但最后回到小屋时却热得不行。
感谢带我回游客中心的环保官员!
主公园共有5座桥,卡斯卡德地区有1座桥。
真希望天气凉爽时能有更多时间去徒步!
