Kentucky Route 26 (KY 26) serves as a shorter alternate route for traffic using US 25W between Williamsburg and Corbin in Whitley County. The southern terminus of KY 26 is at US 25W north of Williamsburg, and its northern terminus is also at US 25W, this time in Corbin. Traveling from Williamsburg, while US 25W treks northwesterly past I-75 in the direction of Cumberland Falls State Resort Park, then comes back in a northeasterly direction, crossing I-75 again on the way into Corbin, KY 26 stays on the east side of I-75 for its entirety, providing a more direct path between the two cities.
