Land Between the Lakes, KY
 

Thinking of going to Land Between the Lakes, Kentucky next week for some
off-roading and camping.

Anybody have any recommendations for good off-road trails in that area?

Is camping allowed on the trails, or do you have to camp only in designated
campsite areas?

Any info would be appreciated.

Thanks,

Tom

Hey Tom,

There are some great trails there! You have to sign in with the forest
service before you enter. Get good maps because you CAN get lost off the
main trails. I don't know about camping along the trails but you can
certainly get off the trail some and set up. Also, there is camping nearby.
You will see a lot of ATVs there too.

Re: Land Between the Lakes, KY
 

I second what Andy said. You can get maps from the forest service there.
There's a $15 (IIRC) fee for a 3-day pass. You can camp at the off-road
park there in designated areas, or contact an area campground -

Kenlake State Resort Park 800-325-0143 Aurora
Early American 270-474-2241 Aurora
Fin & Feather 270-474-2351 Aurora
Holiday Inn 270-753-5986 Murray
Kenbar Inn 270-474-2288 Gilbertsville
Ken Oaks Motel 270-474-2288 Aurora
Lakeland Resort 270-474-2292 Aurora
Ramada Inn 270-362-4278 Gilbertsville
Shawnee Bay 800-272-4413 Benton
Shoney's Inn 270-753-5353 Murray
Sportsman Lodge 270-354-8333 Benton
Town & Country Resort 270-354-6587 Benton

I stayed at Kenlake when I was there as part of MidriversJeepThing's
Octoberfest (sic). You have to be off the trails by 5pm (maybe earlier now,
due to the whole lack of daylight thing).

Should be a great time of year to be in the area. Enjoy!
