Cave Run Lake

Home > Cave Run Lake > Cave Run Lake

Description:
Cave Run Lake is located within the scenic Eastern Highlands region of Kentucky and is almost completely surrounded by the Daniel Boone National Forest. The 8,270-acre lake is most widely known for its varied outdoor recreation opportunities, excellent fishing and scenic beauty. However, the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers constructed the lake and dam project primarily for the purpose of reducing flood damage along the lower Licking River valley.

The Corps of Engineers operates and maintains the dam and 3 day-use recreation areas near the dam. The Morehead District of the U.S.D.A. Forest Service has jurisdiction over the numerous remaining recreation areas at the lake.

Minor Clark Fish Hatchery, one of the largest state-owned hatcheries in the nation, is located below Cave Run Dam.
