Very nice woodsy area to get away on your bike for a while. Trails are good for every skill level, from beginners to skilled riders.

Zilpo Fire Tower

Nice short hike. There was an old fire tower at the top but alas a pair of jerks set it ablaze a several years back. Unfortunately the top can be a little trashy from the lazy people to sorry to pack out their trash. It is located in the primitive weapons area of the forest so be careful during deer hunting season.

As of may 19th, closed for Blasting (?). I drove the extra 45 south from my already 2 hour drive to Louisville to see the falls. Epic fail and disappointment to learn it was closed.

Not a lot to see. A simple and quick trail through the woods that will lead u up to Warbler Rd to other trails.

One of my favorite trails at the park. Trail leads around the lake and over a couple bridges. A lot of wildlife on the trail. Deer, Birds, Turtles. Also will take you to the back country trail.

This is one of the most overlooked trails at Audubon park. Especially if you are looking for a quick workout. Although short it has some pretty strenuous hills and steps to climb. Not very scenic but at the top there is a couple places overlooking hwy 41. Nice little trail. Can be slippery going downhill in areas when it's rained.

I imagine that this hike has amazing views however I went on a low ceiling day. Top was steep but seemed pretty sweet especially since there are only two "major"elevation gains. I can't wait for round two on a sunny day. Highly recommend this hike.

Took my children to this trail to introduce them to hiking. Their excitement to be in the wood was astounding! We traveled combined with the back country trail (a little more than 3 mile) past the wilderness lake and through some moderately difficult hill. For being an ears shot away from hwy 41 and in the city of Henderson this trail offered some breath taking views. As for the kids they enjoyed it so much that I'm taking my two oldest on an overnight hike this coming weekend. It's all they've talked about for weeks now. This trail it's a great place to go when you only have a few hours to enjoy mother natures goodness. I recommend you give this one a try!
