Cadiz is a small city in Tigg County in southwest Kentucky. The population as of the 2000 census was 2,373. Cadiz is a historic town that was a base for both the Union and Confederate during the American Civil War. Today, it's known for being a home base for those visiting the Land Between the Lakes National Recreation Area, an area that was designated a national recreation area by President John F. Kennedy in 1963. The Land Between the Lakes National Recreation Area is a scenic region that's situated in the states of Kentucky and Tennessee between Kentucky Lake and Lake Barkley. The Tennessee and Cumberland Rivers flow very close to each other in this area, separated by a narrow, low ridge. In the early 1800s, this land that separates the two bodies of water by only a few miles became known as Between the Rivers." After the Cumberland River was impounded in the 1960s and a canal was constructed between the two lakes, Land Between The Lakes became the largest inland peninsula in the United States. Today, the Land Between the Lakes (or LBL as it's known) is a 170,000-acre tourist area with dozens of recreational activities and attractions. It offers miles of trails and country roads for hiking and biking, horseback riding, golf, boating, picnicking, scenic drives, antiquing and more. It's also home to several campgrounds and attractions, including the Nature Station, Elk & Bison Prairie, Planetarium, Homeplace 1850s, Turkey Bay OHV Area, and Hematite Lake. In addition, Cadiz is near Kentucky Lake, which is the largest artificial lake east of the Mississippi River, known for its' excellent fishing and boating opportunities.
