Recreation
Grab your backpack and search the woodlands, meadows, ponds and streams. Walk or jog in the early morning while the sunrise stretches over the countryside. Immerse yourself in this 3,000 acre nature lover’s paradise and take advantage of a wide range of activities.
  • Natural Highlights – Shaker Village’s natural heritage program seeks to preserve, conserve and restore native habitats, plant species and other elements of Kentucky’s natural environment.
  • Hiking & Biking – Spend the day on the village’s extensive trail system. More than 20 trails wind through the property, covering over 40 miles of field and forest terrains.
  • Equestrian – Bring your horses and ride miles of horseback riding and carriage driving trails. Overnight boarding facilities are also available.
  • Bird Watching – Search for migrating and resident birds year-round along the trails. Over 125 bird species have been identified on the property.
  • Wildflowers – Hundreds of wildflowers can be found throughout the forests, fields and prairies during the spring and summer months.
  • Fishing – Bring a pole and throw a line in the village pond. Inn guests are invited to fish the stocked pond at their leisure.
  • Paddling – Bring a canoe or kayak during a visit to Shaker Village and launch into the scenic Kentucky River from Shaker Landing.
  • Lawn Games – Visit the outdoor recreation area and enjoy games for the whole family. Find corn-hole, swings, croquet, Frisbees, fishing poles and more.
  • Star Gazing – As evening falls on Shaker Village, far from streetlights and city haze, the twinkling stars become the main show. Simply relax and enjoy the panorama of night sky or pick out specific celestial bodies.
