Guntown Mountain

Guntown Mountain is a grand family adventure in an Old West setting. We offer the best entertainment and attractions in South Central Kentucky. Step back in time and enjoy the sights and sounds of the Wild West. Many people don't realize the rich history of the Mammoth Cave Region. It is a well known legend that Jesse James robbed one of the local banks in South Central Kentucky and hid out in one of the area caves. Come see a re-creation of the famous gunfights of the "Old West" in the streets of our Wild West town. Guntown Mountain is an authentic re-creation of a wild west town from the days of the frontier. Stroll into the Saloon Show and watch the area's prettiest dancers. Maybe you will want to take in a magic show from the best illusionist in Kentucky. Of course, live country/western music is always in abundance in our music theatre. H

Six Flags

Six Flags has everything when it comes to family fun, plus the two new spectacles 'Tornado' and 'Greezed Lightnin'. The area's best thrill rides and roller coasters plus delicious food, games and all the fun and excitement you can handle! Tornado launches riders from a 75-foot platform, plunging down a 132-foot tunnel, before splashing back and forth through a giant funnel of 5,000 gallons of gushing water. Once riders reach the vortex of the Tornado, they will be pushed through the eye of the storm and into a cool catch pool below! Guests will navigate the colossal blue and yellow-checkered structure on a unique cloverleaf-shaped tube that seats up to four riders.
Greezed Lightnin' will leave you breathless as you blast out of the coaster station like a bolt of lightning, going from zero to 60 miles per hour in less than six seconds. You won't have time to scream before you zoom through the 76-foot-tall loop, and are sent soaring up the 142-foot incline at a 70-degree angle.
