About Campton
Set in the foothills of eastern Kentucky, Campton is a tiny mountain community of around 300 residents and the county seat of Wolfe County. Because it sits right on the doorstep of the Red River Gorge, the town is a quiet home base for outdoor enthusiasts who love hiking, rock climbing, and scenic sandstone arches. Daily life is centered around local spots like the Wolfe County Public Library, and neighbors turn out each Labor Day weekend for the annual Swift Silver Mine Festival. It is a peaceful, slow-paced rural town with world-class natural beauty right in its backyard.
