Wolf Run Wildlife Refuge Tours

Spotting wild animals in the wild isn't easy these days. But a trip to Wolf Run Wildlife Reserve is the closest thing to it! This haven works hard to protect some important species and spread its conservation message.

This wildlife safe haven is on the to-do lists of many travelers to Nicholasville. But Wolf Run Wildlife Reserve isn't the only drawcard in the area. Herrington Lake, Camp Nelson Civil War Heritage Park, and Peninsula Golf Course are some other interesting sights nearby.

No weird hotel smells, nice property, bed was very uncomfortable so much so that I had to get "cupped" the next day but it was just one night so I made do. I might stay here again if I had to but for the beds it wouldnt be my first choice. Breakfast was good, parking is close, there was a pool but said it was out of service for maintenance

Popular places to visit

Halfway through a 3 km loop at Tom Dorman SNP you can take an offshoot down to the sandy banks and be rewarded with views from the belly of the Kentucky River Palisades. The exposed rock is beautiful and it's old. REALLY old. Half a billion years old. I'm still trying to let that number sink in. #paleozoicgeology The walk was short, hilly, and slippery if you have knee problems begin the loop on the east side of the parking lot your joints will thank you once you make it to the stairs.
