Spanning 788 lake acres, Lake Malone captures Kentucky’s beauty in a small package. The lake is enclosed by dramatic 50-foot sandstone bluffs rising above the water's edge and surrounded by hardwood forests. Discover the beautiful landscape of Lake Malone State Park on the 1.5-mile Laurel Trail or the .25-mile Wildflower Trail. These easy-rated hiking trails provide picturesque views of many rock walls, once used as shelters by Native Americans. Mountain laurel, holly, dogwood and wildflowers provide a rich tapestry of native flora. Natural wonders abound in this secluded wilderness! Enjoy a symphony of starlight and a chorus of nature camping amid the great outdoors! Some 30 primitive sites are available for tent camping. Twenty-five campsites are equipped with electric and water hookups to accommodate recreational vehicles. A central service building in the campground offers showers, rest rooms, and a laundry; and for completed camping convenience, campsites have grills and picnic tables. Pets are allowed if restrained.

The Brizendine Brothers Nature Park is a pristine 12-acre woodland park. Upon entering the park all visitors are greeted at the trail head by "Yogi," a 7' Chainsaw sculptured bear, as they begin the 1/2 mile journey through the woodlands.

There are three beautiful footbridges, totaling 217 linear feet and an open meadow in the middle, adding a second Eco-system within the park. Dispersed throughout the park are three picnic tables, Red Cedar split-log benches and numerous vegetative signs, identifying native trees. The park is home to deer, wild turkeys, raccoons, squirrels, butterflies and numerous native birds.

Soon to be developed within the park will be a "wildlife pond" and running stream as well as interactive wildlife signage at the entrance to the park.

Come and enjoy God's creation as you are serenaded by native song birds while taking a leisurely stroll along a crushed gravel path through the woods!
