Shrout Tate Wilson was recently awarded the Kentucky Trails project at the Louisville Zoo. This project will be located on 20 undeveloped acres near the Zoo’s Glacier Run and Snow Leopard Pass.
The Kentucky Trails will aim to be an “extensive, interactive, naturalistic experience, providing up-close encounters with bison, elk, black bear, bobcat, eagles and other iconic native Kentucky animals.” The exhibit will take place as a guided tour with various means of travel including an open vehicle and paddle boat rides. There will also be a Rickhouse Hall restaurant and event space and a habitat theatre.
The project is currently expected to cost $30 million and be open to the public by 2025.
