The South Fork Kentucky River is one of two rivers, along with the North Fork Kentucky River, that join to form the Kentucky River in south central Kentucky in the United States. It is approximately 30 mi (48 km) long.
It formed in Clay County, in the Daniel Boone National Forest approximately 10 mi (16 km) northeast of Manchester, by the confluence of Goose and Red Bird creeks. It flows generally north in a highly meandering course thorugh the mountainous Cumberland Plateau region. It joins the North Fork at Beattyville.Template:US-south-geo-stub
