Overview

Primary Yellow 1 isn’t a pretty name, but it is a pretty trail through the Kentucky forest. Located smack in the middle of Land Between the Lakes, Turkey Bay OHV Area boasts over 100 miles of off-road trails, and this is one of the main routes through the park. Camping is allowed nearly anywhere along these trails, even shoreline camping and access to Kentucky Lake. These trails are the only designated 4x4/off-road trails in the 170,000 acres in the Lakes National Recreation Area. The 40-mile long national park offers hiking, horse trails, 300 miles of undeveloped shoreline, mountain biking, 400+ miles of scenic roads, and 1400 campsites, including within Turkey Bay. Since this is a primary trail within the OHV park, you will most likely spend time along this trail at some point. Once inside the park, you could spend days exploring it and never take the same way twice. Consider this the first 7 miles of a massive OHV playground and get to Turkey Bay.
