Ziplining indoors! They also have an obstacle course, and a bike park This is super fun if you've never been ziplining, I've been a few times and each time has been exhilarating . If you've been ziplining before, this is more of multiple short lines, and not a big long one. This activity is located indoors. I believe they have a height/weight limit so check out the website. louisvillemegacavern.com

Within an 8 minute drive. Great seasonal alcoholic slushies, I had the apple cider one the other day, and it was great. Year round they have a bourbon slushie which they serve at their sister restaurant royal's chicken. T They put this location in an old car shop, the glass garage door lets lots of light in. A great lunch spot.

If you are into Bourbon, this is one of the smallest ones I've found, so you are typically in a smaller group and could learn more. They bottle for quite a few well known brands. This is right down the street from Yew Dell Gardens, so you could hit both if you wanted too.
