Kentucky River Palisades

The Conservancy’s Kentucky River Palisades project encompasses about 100 river miles, stretching from Clays Ferry in Madison County to Frankfort in Franklin County. Most activity, to date, has occurred within the Central Palisades Corridor in Jessamine and Garrard counties. 

The Kentucky River Palisades is a unique region boasting 450-million-year-old limestone cliffs, deep gorges, wet weather springs and a system of caves.
