Land Between the Lakes National Recreation Area offers 170,000 acres of outdoor activities and environmental learning between Lake Barkley and Kentucky Lake in Western KY/TN. Enjoy hundreds of miles of bike, hike, paddle, horse, hunt, and off-highway vehicle trails. Sleep under the stars at our many campgrounds or spend a relaxing afternoon at one of our picnic areas. Our 300 miles of natural, undeveloped shoreline offers lake access for water sports, bank fishing, and more. Get up close to owls, foxes, bobcats, red wolves, and other rescued native wildlife at the Woodlands Nature Station. Experience life on an 1850s farm with period livestock, crops, and hand-made tools at the Homeplace Working Farm and Living History Museum. Drive the 700-acre Elk and Bison Prairie to view native plants and wildlife. Daily shows at our newly-upgraded Golden Pond Planetarium bring outer space to life in a 40-foot dome theater.
