About Paragon Dispersed Camping Area
Paragon Dispersed Camping Area is a primitive camping area with ten designated campsites, some with lantern posts and fire rings. The area is located off of KY 519 on a narrow portion of Cave Run Lake which provides calm paddling conditions for non-motorized boating. The site design also allows for easy vehicle access all the way to the water's edge. Trash collection is available seasonally.
