Things to do in Bullitt County

Bullitt County is a thriving area located just south of Louisville. The area is home to almost 70,000 residents and is rich in culture and history. If you are relocating to the area, here is a quick list of places to go and things to see.



Bernheim Arboretum and Research Forest - Whether you want to go hiking, biking, fishing, or just want to have a nice outdoor picnic, Bernheim Forest has a spot for you. Bernheim also offers special events and classes designed to educate kids, adults, and families. Access is free M-F and $5.00 per car M-F. Take 1-65 south to Exit 112, turn left onto SR-245 and drive about 1 mile.



Brooks Hill Winery - Open M-f from 1-7 and Sat from 10:20-7. Call 502-957-7810 for more information.


Jim Beam American Outpost- Take a self-guided tour through the distillery and learn about the 200 year history of this legendary bourbon-maker. Tours are available for free 7 days a week. For more information, call 502-543-9877.



Kart Kountry - You can spend more time behind the wheel at Kart Kountry than you do going to the 'Longest Go-Kart Track in the World." With five sizes and speeds of go-karts, the 1.5 mile road course is challenging and exciting for kids of all ages. Kart Kountry also has mini-golf, batting cages, bumperboats, and an arcade.
