Cumberland Parkway

Caves, Lakes & Corvettes
Southern Kentucky Vacations Region

92 miles

Throw your fishing rod in the back seat and go lake-hopping on this drive through Kentucky’s Southern Shorelines region, home to the Houseboat Capital of the World, Lake Cumberland.

This region is best known for lake vacations, fishing spots and water skiing, but there is also canoeing, hiking trails, unique Kentucky crafts and historic sites waiting to be discovered. No matter what season you visit, there's plenty of fun to be had – from picking apples and pumpkins at Haney's Appledale Farm in the fall to cooling off from the summer heat at SomerSplash Water Park.
