The greatest part about having your own car is that you can travel where you want, when you want. Make the most of your newfound freedom by discovering all that there is to do in Cave City. It’s just 18 miles away. Dinosaur World, Kentucky Down Under Adventure Zoo and Mammoth Cave Canoe & Kayak alone make the drive out worthwhile. The locals will also likely point you in the direction of Bowling Green, 35 miles away. If you only see one attraction here, let it be National Corvette Museum. (But we’re also huge fans of Beech Bend Park and Lost River Cave.)
