Kingdom Come State Park

502 Park Rd.
Cumberland, KY 40823

Kingdom Come State Park, with an elevation of 2,700 feet, is the crowning jewel in the crest of Pine Mountain.

Named after the popular Civil War novel, "The Little Shepherd of Kingdom Come," by Kentucky author John Fox Jr., the park preserves 1,283 acres of unspoiled wilderness.

Some of the most extraordinary rock formations in the state are featured at this park, including Log Rock, a natural sandstone bridge, and Raven Rock, a giant rock exposure that soars 290 feet into the air at a 45-degree angle! The park is open based on road and / or weather conditions.

BikingThe Little Shepherd Trail is a narrow gravel and blacktop road extends 38 miles along the crest of Pine Mountain from Whitesburg to Harlan. The road traverses the park near the summit of Pine Mountain. This is an excellent scenic route for mountain bikes, cars (remember the gravel), and light trucks.FishingLargemouth bass, bluegill, crappie, catfish, and trout are fishing game in the 3.5 acre mountain lake. Year-round.HikingThe 14 hiking trails that crisscross nearly 5 miles of rugged mountain terrain provide the opportunity to explore the park's giant rock formations and scenic overlooks.

Trails are open year-round.HorseshoesRental equipment is available for horseshoes. Year-round.Miniature GolfA nine-hole miniature golf course is near the lake and gift shop.
