overview
The Nada Tunnel – pronounced “nay-duh” – was built originally for the Dana Lumber Company in the early 1900s and it was named for Nada, Kentucky, (a now-forgotten logging town 10 miles past the entrance of the tunnel).
The tunnel itself remains a remarkable piece of the history of Kentucky, but it’s not just the tunnel: the whole of Red River Gorge is a snapshot into the history of Kentucky.
The Nada Tunnel takes you right back to the early 20th century the moment you look at it, reminding your family what sheer grit and determination can do through labor and construction.
