Drive Old Frankfort Pike or US 60

Drive Old Frankfort Pike or US 60

Old Frankfort Pike, Frankfort, KY 40601

See the historic horse farms of Central Kentucky by taking a drive on Old Frankfort Pike or US 60 between Frankfort and Lexington. Old Frankfort Pike is a narrower road and thought to be more picturesque, but US 60 offers just as many great views of the horse farms.
