In addition to the Railroad Trail, Mammoth Cave National Park offers several opportunities for bicyclists to get out into the outdoors. Street bicycles are permitted on all paved Park roads that are open to the public, mountain bikes are permitted on the unpaved administrative roads. In addition, certain trails have been specifically designated for off-road bicycle use, and more are now under development.
Several years ago, the Tourism, Arts, and Heritage Cabinet’s Office for Adventure Tourism created the Cross Kentucky Master Trail Plan for non-motorized trails. The idea is to be able to travel across the entire state of Kentucky on foot, by bicycle, or by horseback. In the Master Trail Plan, Park City was designated a part of the "Kentucky Caves Trail". A 70-mile trail was designed, beginning at Barren River Lake State Resort Park, through Park City, Mammoth Cave National Park, to Nolin River Lake and ending at Rough River Dam State Resort Park.
Thousands of miles of trails and waterways criss-cross the beautiful state of Kentucky. We offer endless opportunities for outdoor adventures, staycations, and roadtrips. Along these trails, numerous communities have been designated as Official Kentucky Trail Towns. Park City is proud to be an official KY Trail Town!
