I write like it's my job - because it is! I have a Master's in English and love words: crossword puzzles, Scrabble games, Wordle, and, of course, good, old-fashioned books.
I'm a writer and editor at OnlyInYourState, and a contributing writer at Cincinnati Magazine. I love the Great Outdoors and am endlessly awestruck by this beautiful country of ours. Coffee keeps me going, yoga keeps me sane, my kids keep me grounded, and my writing keeps me inspired.
Here in Kentucky, we love nothing more than a day spent on the water, whether it’s kayaking to hidden caves or leisurely lounging on a boat (Kentucky *is* the Houseboat Capital of the World, after all). We’re always up for an adventure, and while the Bluegrass might be best-known for bourbon and derbies, Kentucky is a dark horse when it comes to bucket-list-worthy outdoor recreation. And SUP Kentucky offers what’s quite possibly the most Kentucky adventure ever: stand up paddleboarding through an underground cavern in Red River Gorge.
SUP Kentucky is a traveling adventure company that takes locals and visitors around the state to explore via kayak or stand-up paddleboard.
On this hour-long expedition, visitors get to paddle through an abandoned limestone mine to an underground waterfall! This is easily the most unique way to experience Red River Gorge.
And while this in and of itself is a thrilling adventure, SUP Kentucky just added another fantastic feature to this tour with its clear stand up paddle boards. Now, adventurers can feel as though they are literally walking on water while exploring an underground cave in the heart of Red River Gorge. Talk about an experience for your Bluegrass bucket list!
If you prefer a seated underground paddling adventure, the clear crystal kayaks are another option, providing an equally extraordinary excursion in this underground wonderland.
However you decide to explore this subterranean cavern is up to you. But whatever you choose, between the caves, paddling, and thrilling fun, you're bound to have the most Kentucky day ever with this adventure outfitter!
