BIKE & HIKE TRAIL
Long before the establishment of
Mammoth Cave National Park, the
town of Glasgow Junction, now Park
City, cooperated with the private
owners of Mammoth Cave and
other caves in the area in sharing
this region with travelers. They
were connected by mutual financial
interest, family relationships,
community, and a modest spur line,
the Mammoth Cave Railroad. Today
Mammoth Cave National Park and
National Park Concessions, Inc.
celebrate that legacy of cooperation
and hospitality with the reopening of
the old railroad corridor. Enjoy your
travels along this historic path.

0.3 mi
PLEASE NOTE: Although this trail follows
portions of the original Mammoth Cave
Railroad line, this is not a uniformly flat, level
trail. You are traveling in hilly country, and
must ascend and descend grades that can
in places be steep and difficult. Between the
Furlong Cemetery spur trail and Shackleford
Cemetery, you MUST dismount your bicycle
and walk it along the designated area of trail.
The exact route of the Mammoth Cave
Railroad could not be completely duplicated
due to the development of state and park
roads since the railroad's closure. Your route
today will require crossing these roads at
several places. Please use extreme caution
at road crossings. If you are enjoying the trail
with children, be especially aware and do not
let them ride ahead.
