While Kentucky is home to a picturesque town famous for being the Bourbon Capitol of the World, there’s more to the state than distilleries and horse racing. Its rolling pastures and mountainous terrain are perfect for outdoor adventures, and Pine Mountain State Resort Park is one of the best places to experience its rugged beauty. Opening in 1924, it is Kentucky’s first state park, and a century later, you can still enjoy its many hiking trails and one of the best mountaintop resorts for rolling Appalachian views.
