In 2012, Morehead became a trail town, rerouting the [[Sheltowee Trace Trail]] through it. This gives trail users the ability to explore the town and get what they may need before heading back on the trail.<ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.kentuckytourism.com/outdoor-adventure/attraction/morehead-kentucky-trail-town/781/|title=Morehead - Morehead, Kentucky|publisher=Kentucky Tourism}}</ref>
