ABOUT THIS GUIDE

All 216 SOTA summits in association W4K (Kentucky), from the SOTLAS summit export. Each summit code opens its SOTLAS page. Points and elevation come from that export. Cards also list POTA and WWFF (KFF) parks within 3 miles.

On this page the summit list comes from the club’s live Kentucky data file, so it stays current.

FIELD-USE NOTE

Many summits are on private land — get permission. Operate within the SOTA activation zone and follow the SOTA General Rules and W4K Association Reference Manual. Verify access, closures and hunting seasons before travel.

Access: Permission & Safety First

Many Kentucky summits are on private, mining or timber land. Always get landowner permission where needed, and check SOTLAS and the W4K reference manual for access notes before you go.

This guide is a research tool, not the final word — do your homework before you go and confirm you are on the correct summit and inside its activation zone.
