Tucked in the heart of the Bluegrass State, Bowling Green, Kentucky is filled with family focused experiences!

Start your summer journey at the National Corvette Museum and NCM Motorsports Park, where the spirit of racing comes alive. Kids can experience the thrill of speed with high speed karting, while adrenaline enthusiasts can test their skills behind the wheel of a Corvette driving on the track itself! Continue the family fun adventure with a day full of thrill rides at Beech Bend Amusement Park & Splash Lagoon. The endless water slides, lazy river, and wave pool provide a refreshing escape from the summer heat.

If you prefer natural wonders to man-made ones, go underground on a boat tour at Lost River Cave! And just a short drive away, Mammoth Cave National Park is home to the world’s longest known cave system! (Tours fill up quickly, so make sure to book ahead of time!)

But summer isn’t just about adventure—it’s also about indulging in the finer things. Treat yourself to a tour of Chaney’s Dairy Barn, where you can meet the cows, savor award winning ice cream, and catch a “moo-vie” under the stars.

Speaking of stars, don’t miss out on the free “Concerts in the Park” every Friday night in Downtown Bowling Green or catch a foul ball while cheering on the Hot Rods Minor League Baseball team. While strolling Fountain Square Park, indulge in a few sweet treats at Mary Jane’s Chocolates, stop for a souvenir at Candlemakers on the Square, and grab a pint from White Squirrel Brewery or a bite at Gerard’s Tavern.

Come for the cars, stay for the adventure, and leave with memories that will last a lifetime. Bowling Green is not just a hidden gem, it’s a diamond destination waiting for you to make plans at VisitBGKY.com.
