(StatePoint) Spending time in the Kentucky wilderness during the day is an unforgettable experience, but there are some one-of-a-kind “noctourism” sites that shouldn’t be missed.  Whether you’re a nature enthusiast, an amateur astronomer, or simply have a thirst for adventure, there are many reasons to consider making Kentucky your next travel destination.ping

Cumberland Falls, in the aptly named Cumberland Falls State Park located in eastern Kentucky, measures 68 feet high and 125 feet wide with water that gushes over the falls at 3,600 cubic feet per second. Often called the “Niagara of the South,” the powerful, yet gorgeous Cumberland Falls engages all senses for those who stand close enough. But what makes this particular waterfall so special is that it produces a moonbow every full moon when there’s a clear night sky.
