Jasper Posted January 6, 2010 Share Posted January 6, 2010 I think from here in Richmond Ky. to Cincinnati is about 120 miles. It usually takes me about an hour and a half to two hours to reach the park. Well worth the rive though I must say. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest KINGSISLANDMASTER Posted January 6, 2010 Share Posted January 6, 2010 I used to live a walking distance from the park but I have moved so Now I live about 10 miles or so east!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
XGatorHead 8904 Posted January 6, 2010 Share Posted January 6, 2010 Google Maps says it's 5.9 miles to KI for me. It also says 11 minutes, which is typically about right... although I have made it in 7 minutes several times, depending on how I hit the lights and traffic!

KIfan1980 Posted January 7, 2010 Share Posted January 7, 2010 Just like Gator, I'm a hair over 5 miles (garage to gold pass parking) and 7-11 minutes depending upon upon Tylersville Road traffic lights. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pi_kapp_shack Posted January 7, 2010 Share Posted January 7, 2010 According to Yahoo Maps about 620 miles...slightly over 9.5 hours drive time. Currently live in the Kansas City area but grew up in Columbus so KI was my "home" park if you will. Haven't been back to KI since 2003ish.

touchdown62 Posted January 7, 2010 Share Posted January 7, 2010 I've never measured in miles, but I've gotten there in 2 hours 15 minutes. I'm going to try a new route this year that will hopefully take a half-hour off my drive time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
luff Posted January 7, 2010 Share Posted January 7, 2010 According to Bing 360.4 miles, 5 hr 36 min. However the time is highly variable depending on traffic on I-29x and I-80/94. I drove most of it 8 times last year with only one trip to KI thanks to the bad weather on Thursdays in October. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CincyMan98 Posted January 9, 2010 Share Posted January 9, 2010 I live about 15 minutes away; my grandparents live like 1 minute away so that's awesome =) Sometimes I take the back way (the hilly roads, I don't know what the name is) and most of the time I take I-75. Both take about 15-20 minutes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Karen Posted January 10, 2010 Share Posted January 10, 2010 I am 38.7 miles away. Depending on who is driving - me it takes 45 minutes but my husband makes the trip in 30 minutes lol. Clearly we know who has the heavier foot! Interesting to see how dedicated folks are to an amusement park. I do not go as often as I once did but during Haunt I do not miss a night!!
