Lake Barkley State Resort Park, State resort park on Lake Barkley, Trigg County, United States.
The 3,700-acre natural area features a lodge overlooking Lake Barkley, multiple hiking trails, and extensive recreational facilities along the eastern shoreline.
The establishment of the park in 1964 followed the creation of Lake Barkley reservoir through the construction of Barkley Dam on the Cumberland River.
The park serves as an educational center with nature programs teaching visitors about Kentucky's native wildlife, plant species, and environmental conservation methods.
Located eight miles west of Cadiz on U.S. Highway 68, the park provides camping sites for up to eight occupants with access to bathhouses and grocery facilities.
The park forms part of the Land Between the Lakes region, connecting two major water bodies and creating a distinctive ecological corridor for diverse wildlife species.
