Kentucky has one of the nation's most outstanding state park systems. Resort park settings range from scenic mountains and streams in eastern Kentucky to fabulous man-made lakes in western Kentucky. Accommodations are varied and facilities may include golf courses, swimming pools, beaches, lodges, restaurants, tennis courts, meeting rooms, amphitheaters and nature centers. Many state parks and shrines are developed around historic themes.

The Department of Parks provides a central reservation service to assist travelers in making reservations at Kentucky State Resort Park lodges. The Kentucky State Fair, held in Louisville each August, is the country's largest air-conditioned fair. The 10-day event features contests, exhibits, and entertainment by major performing artists. Most of Kentucky's counties also host county fairs during the summer months, and community-sponsored festivals and celebrations offer a variety of recreational opportunities across the state from March through December.The Kentucky Tourism Cabinet distributes, at no charge, an official Kentucky Highway Map, as well as information on travel, recreation, and special events in Kentucky.
