With over 365 known miles of cave passageways, Mammoth Cave is the world's longest cave. Besides its spectacular size, Mammoth Cave has an almost surreal beauty. Remarkable stories of human history, 350 million-year-old rocks, and its fascinating animals adapted to life in the dark, make Mammoth Cave a place you won't want to miss. Ranger-led activities are offered daily, except Christmas Day. Join rangers for trips in the cave and on the surface, ranging from 1 1/4 hours to 6 1/2 hours. Designed with all visitors in mind, you'll find activities suiting a wide variety of needs and interests including cave trips, nature walks, campfire programs and slide presentations. Most tours are designed for a mixed audience. Some are easy, others are strenuous, several are designed exclusively for children, and one is designed for people seeking a wild cave adventure off the beaten path. All tours begin and end at the Visitor Center. Children under six are admitted free.

Cottages, bed and breakfasts, a state park, as well as camping and picnic sites are available near the lake. The natural habitat of the lake is perfect for game fish. In-season catches include smallmouth and largemouth bass, crappie, bluegill, walleye and catfish. From I-65 travelers can reach Nolin Lake through several routes.

Bell's Tavern
Built in 1830 by William Bell, Bell's Tavern served as a stagecoach stop that brought visitors to Mammoth Cave when first open. The inn and tavern was famous in the United States and Europe for elite patrons, cuisine and a special drink of peach and honey brandy for “Joy before the journey’s end. The tavern burned in 1860 and reconstruction by Bell’s grandson, William F. Bell and stepfather, George M. Proctor, was halted due to the Civil War.
