Red River Gorge

The Red River Gorge is a canyon system on the Red River in east-central Kentucky. Geologically, it is part of the Pottsville Escarpment. Much of the Gorge has been purchased as part of the Daniel Boone National Forest and has been subsequently reserved as the Red River Gorge Geological Area, an area of around 28,000 acres. It has been designated a National Natural Landmark. The 13,000-acre Clifty Wilderness Area lies entirely within the gorge. This intricate canyon system features an abundance of high sandstone cliffs, rock shelters, waterfalls, and natural bridges. There are more than 100 natural sandstone arches in the Red River Gorge Geological Area. Kentucky's Natural Bridge State Park (Kentucky) is immediately adjacent to this area, featuring one of the largest natural bridges. Because of its unusual and rugged nature, the Red River Gorge features a remarkable variety of ecological zones. by EchoFallsCabin.com
