The Livingston County Trail System is located immediately south of I-24 off of KY 453 on the right hand side of the road. It is behind the “Cheers” gas station and convenience store, and behind the “America’s Best Value Inn” on Lodge Road. There are two main parking areas: one is located next to the “Exit 31 RV Park,” and the other is directly behind the “America’s Best Value Inn.”
The main Blue Trail is a two-mile loop hiking trail that consists of hard pack gravel. It is interconnected with the three-mile long Green Bike Trail, which is paved and also handicap accessible. By taking a detour at the half way point along the Blue Trail, by following the paved Green
Bike Trail toward the south, you can view the old “Indian Burial Ground.” There will be signs to direct you there.
The Blue Trail begins by meandering along a ridge line before opening up into a field, with a view of the United States Flag atop a 60 foot pole, and also a view of the I-24 Bridge over the Cumberland River. The trail then loops down and back up through an old cemetery, climbing another ridge before descending to the other parking area. In order to complete the loop, you must walk east on Lodge Road, and then work your way to the back parking lot of “America’s Best Value Inn.”
