We decided last minute to visit the horse park and we are so glad we did! It was a great value, tickets are good for 2 visits!
Very interesting and interactive. You can pet horses, take horseback rides and much more. The grounds were very clean and not overly crowded

Wow! Very neat place to learn how horse racing started and how horses are such a big part of our lives. Trolly ride was great. 20 minute ride with a guide to give history and layout of the facility. Many hands on activities. Great for kids and adults. Was able to get up close to see horses and pet some of them. Spent 5 hours investigating as much as we could. Tickets gives you 2 days to see everything. Wonderful staff. Helpful and friendly.

The main reason we came here was for the horseback riding. To be honest, the ride itself was pretty slow and a little boring. That said, the scenery was absolutely stunning, and riding through such a beautiful area made it worthwhile. There’s also a museum on-site, which was decent. It’s probably more interesting if you’re really into horses or if you’re visiting with kids.

Great place to learn and enjoy everything Kentucky is known for. Learn about horses, interact, and experience everything about them. Great for kids and adults. Beautiful grounds to just enjoy the day. Good fishing pond right off the parking lot as well!!

We spent the morning at Kentucky Horse Park and it ended up being one of the highlights of our Lexington trip.
We started around 10 AM with the horse-drawn carriage tour, which was a great way to see the park and learn some of the history. After that we spent time in the kids’ play barn where our toddler had a blast climbing around and exploring.
Later we watched one of the horse shows and were able to get up close and even pet some of the horses, which made the experience really memorable.
The park is beautiful, well kept, and surprisingly very family friendly. There’s a nice mix of educational exhibits, live demonstrations, and interactive areas for kids.
Our son Pierce absolutely loved it — definitely a great stop if you’re visiting Lexington with kids or just enjoy horses.
with Kentucky Horse Park. Takes about 2 minutes.
