CAVES, LAKES & CORVETTES DAY 1 REGIONAL ITINERARY DAY 2 1 Dinosaur World, Cave City Brake for down-home deliciousness at Bucky Bees BBQ and its famous Bucky’s Pie – skillet-fried cornbread topped with pulled pork, beans and house-made coleslaw – before entering Kentucky’s version of Jurassic Park, where 150 replica life-size dinosaurs prowl through the forest. 2 Hidden River Cave/American Cave Museum, Horse Cave Feeling bold? Grab the handrails and brave the world’s longest underground swinging bridge, suspended 50 feet above the canyon floor. Soak up the mysteries and history of a cavern beneath a town at the country’s only museum devoted solely to caves. 3 Blue Water Trail/Mammoth Cave National Park, Horse Cave In waters teeming with fish, enjoy a relaxing float through the heart of this geologic marvel, from Dennison Ferry to Green River Ferry, paddling along a bluff-lined gorge with streamside caves and past the entrance of Crystal Cave, where the tragic story of cave explorer Floyd Collins played out. 4 Double J Stables and Campground, Mammoth Cave Gallop along horse trails unfurling through the back-country of Mammoth Cave National Park with the only stable operating in the park.
