Sunday Tour d’Elegance: A Journey Through Kentucky’s Scenic Horse Country

 

Begin your Sunday morning at the historic Keeneland Racecourse, a landmark renowned for its rich equestrian heritage and picturesque grounds. As engines start and anticipation builds, participants will embark on a meticulously planned drive through the heart of Kentucky’s Bluegrass region, where rolling hills and white-fenced pastures create an idyllic backdrop for a parade of classic automobiles.

 

The tour’s first interlude is at the charming Trackside Restaurant in Paris, Kentucky. Here, guests can enjoy light refreshments and the warm hospitality that small-town Kentucky is known for, all while surrounded by the town’s historic architecture and vibrant community spirit. This pause offers a perfect opportunity to mingle with fellow enthusiasts and admire the diverse collection of vehicles participating in the tour.

 

The journey concludes with a delightful luncheon at the esteemed Holly Hill Inn in Midway, Kentucky. Nestled amidst scenic landscapes, this fine dining establishment provides an elegant setting to reflect on the day’s experiences. The route emphasizes scenic byways and avoids major interstates, ensuring a leisurely and visually captivating drive that celebrates both automotive excellence and the natural beauty of Kentucky.
