Natural Arch East Overlooks Out and Back
An easy walk to some great views that are spectacular at sunrise. At less than a half-mile roundtrip, this is one of the classic short hikes in Kentucky. It’s also a great place to picnic, so pack some charcoal and get the burgers and dogs goin’!
Natural Arch Loop
This was the first hike I did in the region many years ago, and it remains a great, short hike to one of Kentucky’s most impressive arches. The rock outcropping that seemingly comes up out of nowhere is as impressive as the arch and a beautiful walk in the forest.
Natural Arch Handicap Accessible Overlook
This is a nice, quick walk on paved path to a developed platform looking out over Natural Arch and the Great Gulf. It’s worthy of a stop anytime you’re driving by on US-27 and additional hiking with routes ranging from a quarter mile to 6.5 miles on Buffalo Canyon Loop.
