Along the banks of the Ohio River just north of Henderson, KY, John James Audubon State Park houses the world’s largest collection of Audubon artifacts and offers exhibits on the artist’s life.
Surround yourself with unspoiled, natural beauty in the 69-site campground. A central service building has showers and rest rooms. Picnic tables, grills and a playground are also available in the camping area. Pets are allowed if restrained.
The fishermen in your family can cast for largemouth bass, bluegill and catfish from the banks of the 28-acre lake. Whether you’re out for a leisurely stroll or really want to work up a sweat, you’re sure to find the 6.5 miles of trails at Audubon State Park to your liking. Trails wind through the nature preserve with variations in difficulty and length, including 2.7 miles of back-country hiking.
