Lexington has a sub-tropical climate which varies between seasons. It is best to visit during summer or fall, but be aware of high humidity levels, which can make it feel warmer.
During winter months, the city has temperatures around 35°F, even if there are cold snaps. While summers are warmer, the mid-west climate has cool breezes for pleasant summer nights, even when the days run as high as 90°F.
With a large racetrack, many of the main events focus on racing. There are several races to visit, as well as a variety of museums, special music and live events at the Burl, shopping at the Farmers Market, and more.
Visiting Lexington brings many exciting activities to the fore. Of course, a trip to the races is a must, but so is a visit to the Kentucky Horse Park or Ashland estate where Henry Clay is buried.
