KENTUCKY Team Kentucky
Bluegrass music, “made in Kentucky” bourbon, rugged scenic beauty and succulent culinary flavors are all part of Kentucky. Between farm visits to admire purebred horses and tastings in the many bourbon distilleries, visitors can listen to Bluegrass music, a musical genre born in Kentucky.
Two great American figures were born here and are celebrated in museums: the 16th president of the United States, Abraham Lincoln, and the world champion boxer, Muhammad Ali. Kentucky is full of wilderness areas offering visitors thousands of miles of rivers, the world’s longest cave system and hundreds of miles of hiking trails including the Sheltowee Trace National Recreation Trail, 418 km through the Daniel Boone National Forest named after the famous explorer.
