Trails with Water Fountains in Kentucky

Kentucky has 56 trails with water fountains in this directory, across 27 cities and towns — Lexington, Louisville, Owensboro, Berea and 23 more. Somewhere to refill mid-run instead of carrying every mile of water you need.

Labels come from each trail's own listing, its website and runners' reviews. Conditions change with the weather and the season, and gates and lights follow the park's own hours, so check a recent review before you drive out.
