Pennyrile Forest was established in 1954 and showcased more than 15,00 acres of hardwood trees. The Pennyrile Forest State Resort Park now has 863 acres and a lake that spans 56 acres with a newly constructed lodge with 24 rooms overlooking the lake.
The lodge is open all year round. Camping is also available in the park. Most visitors to Pennyrile Forest State Resort Park spend the day biking, hiking, boating, camping, fishing, horseback riding, swimming, or playing golf.
Several short, easy trails are available for walking; however, longer and more difficult hikes up to thirteen miles long are marked for more experienced hikers.
