Land Between the Lakes National Recreation Area
Land Between the Lakes National Recreation Area (LBL) is a 171,280-acre (69,310 ha) national recreation area in Kentucky and Tennessee, United States, between Lake Barkley and Kentucky Lake. It was designated as a national recreation area in 1963 by President John F. Kennedy and developed using funds appropriated during the Johnson administration. Originally managed by the Tennessee Valley Authority, which constructed dams to create the two lakes in this area, the recreation area was later transferred to the administration of the United States Forest Service. In 1991, it was designated a UNESCO Biosphere Reserve. President Donald Trump's administration withdrew it from the program as of June 2017. An estimated 2 million people visit the area each year.
