The Fork is just a few miles out of town; the road and signs are well marked. While we were there we pulled off at a farmer's gate. It was a weekday and not a single car passed by.

Here are directions to the fork: From the town square in Franklin, drive 3.9 miles north on US Highway 31. Turn east onto Salmons/Blackjack Road (SR 1434). There is no street name sign here, so look for the state highway sign. Drive east on SR 1434 for 1.8 miles. Turn north onto Uhls Road and drive 1.8 miles to the Fork.

The fork is by Bunch Road -- which should be named Brunch Road!

Largest Fork In The Road In Kentucky

The fork is worth a drive-by to enjoy the rural scenery of central Kentucky. The base is stamped with "2018," the year the high school class made the fork. It's definitely the largest fork in the road in Kentucky -- that makes it a must visit if you're trying to stick a fork in your Fork-In-The-Road list. It's a one-lane road in and out, so watch for oncoming traffic in the curves, and don't get off the pavement.
