About Levi Jackson Wilderness Road State Park

A preserved stretch of the Wilderness Road runs through the grounds, marking the route early settlers followed into Kentucky. The park spans 896 acres and carries the name of Levi Jackson, an early pioneer in the region. It functions as both a recreational area and a historic site, though it is now managed as a city park by London rather than as a state park.

Hours, fees, camping, reservations and closures are set by the park and change often. Check the official park site before you go.
