Long renowned for its booming whiskey industry and prowess at horse racing, the city of Louisville serves as a major tourist destination on the northern edge of Kentucky—yet those who venture across the Ohio River will find a truly underrated destination on the southern edge of Indiana. Across the tri-municipality area of Jeffersonville, Clarksville and New Albany, visitors can explore fascinating museums and pristine natural spaces, with no shortage of top-tier bourbon to discover along the way.

While small pockets of the park are currently open for public exploration, Kentucky and Indiana residents alike can look forward to the restoration of native woodlands and wetlands, ultimately ushering in a truly remarkable ecotourism destination for all to enjoy.
