Lexington, Kentucky

A place worth knowing

Make room for Lexington.

Make Lexington a day with time for one focus, whether horses, historic interpretation or art. The horse park is a separate journey from downtown and campus collections. Choose confirmed openings and leave room for food and actual travel between venues.

A few good ways to begin.

Choose a stop, then leave room for the unexpected.

Kentucky Horse Park

Choose current exhibits and offered horse-related programs through the park’s visitor guidance. Confirm admission, seasonal schedules and separate activities; a general visit does not guarantee a ride or a particular demonstration.
