Bernheim Forest Giants, Clermont, KY 2021-11-20 - Clermont, KY - Photo By Robert Ellis, Robert Ellis Woodworking. Robert writes, "A small group of us visited Bernheim Forest in November, 2021. This Forest is a beautiful place to see Fall colors and Giants... well wooden giants anyway. We saw three of the giants on the grounds, and this one was one of my favorites. Bernheim Forest is about 15 miles from Bardstown, nestled between Deatsville and Clermont, Kentucky. With lots of trails, landscaped grounds and small lakes it is a very family-friendly destination, well worth exploring." Comments? | Click here to share, print, or bookmark this photo.
