Review & FAQ:
It would be a great shame to visit the Harrodsburg area without taking at least one scenic drive along U.S. Highway Route 68. Route 68 runs all the way from western Kentucky to northwest Ohio, but it is the very scenic Kentucky section of the route that you should explore while in Harrodsburg. The Kentucky section of the route passes through several Civil War Battle sites as you wind your way through Kentucky’s famous Bluegrass Region. The route follows what was originally a buffalo trace which later became a Shaker road in the 1800’s. Along the way you can admire rolling hills, scenic pastures, enormous mansion-like horse barns and mile upon mile of white planked fences.
