Ohio River on the Kentucky Side.

58.5 km

This starts in Henderson kentucky river front and ends in Uniontown Kentucky. This route will mostly be gravel or sand roads. There are also some blacktop roads also. This is in the river bottoms so heavy rain or flood water can make this route hard to travel. Even when dry the road can be rutted and rough. Two wheel drives can do ok when dry.
Also along this route there are lots of places that you can fish and camp by the river bank. Most of the area is under kentucky DNR so check with them about other place away from the banks that you might be able to camp.
