Get a Breath of Fresh Air at Louisville Campgrounds

Louisville is home to some great country and there is no better way to experience Kentucky’s natural splendor than by camping in the great outdoors.

Rivers and streams carve through the rolling hills of Kentucky’s Bluegrass region on their way to the Ohio River, knobs and plateaus rise up to form scenic vistas, horse farms and agricultural lands recall a simpler time, and the largest municipal forest in the United States, Jefferson Memorial Forest, is the region’s premier natural refuge.

Campgrounds in the Louisville area offer a chance for visitors to balance their stay between Louisville’s urban excitement and the more relaxed pace of the Kentucky countryside. And in Louisville, camping doesn’t necessarily mean roughing it! Just take a look at some of the campgrounds below and you’ll see how Kentucky does camping.

You may also wish to consider some of the more rural Louisville Bed & Breakfasts and Suites and Rental Houses for an original Louisville experience.

And don’t forget these Sweet Dreams to find featured Louisville lodgings.
