Take a stroll through the past at Leslie Morris Park at Fort Hill. Fort Hill stands just outside of Frankfort and was the site of a Civil War skirmish between the Union troops and Confederate invaders. Two Civil War forts are preserved on the site, along with the Sullivan family log home. The park offers hiking trails, picnic pavilions, and beautiful views of downtown Frankfort.

It is open to vehicles year-round, and guided walking tours are available for free from Memorial Day through the end of October. The park can be reached on foot from downtown Frankfort via a trail that starts behind the Capitol plaza.
