Highlights

  • Explore historic roadside attractions in Southern Indiana.
  • Feel the thrill of underground zip-lines in Louisville.
  • Experience Bluegrass bourbon and horse-racing culture.
This route includes CCS charging stations. For Tesla Superchargers, follow this link.
The Ohio Valley is loosely defined as the region surrounding the Ohio River, which helps determine the borders of Indiana, Kentucky and Ohio. Explore all three states with a compelling road trip that includes stops in Louisville, Lexington and Cincinnati with fun, under-the-radar detours along the way.
The route works most of the year, but is best recommended between spring and fall, since winter snow can severely limit the availability of activities and extend the length of travel time. The journey is mapped out with an electric vehicle in mind, but follow directions carefully since high-powered charging stations are in select, specific locations.
Make sure to fully charge your car before going on a road trip.
