One of my favorites is Cherokee Arch. I love Red Byrd but the trail is for adventure hikers only... that means it's for people like me! I needed a piece of rope to reach Ledford Arches but I'm 67 and mostly hike alone. Getting to the best arches ain't always easy, but it's always worth it. I like Castle Arch because it's such a big limestone arch sitting proudly on a ridgeline high above Swift Camp Creek. Most of our limestone arches, in Kentucky, are like Henson's or Shangrila (Carter Caves) which are usually below ground and exposed by sinkholes.
I recently met an arch hunter in the Gorge who showed me his map with GPS Coordinates for over 300 arches.
I live an hour away from Red River Gorge and had no idea there was this many arches there. I always thought there was like 3 and they were all super hard to get to. Thanks for sharing, Cheers
ps, Love Miller's, have had their treats many times, lol
This is absolutely beautiful. I just discovered it last week when driving through eastern Kentucky. I have added it to my bucket list and hope to go there in the spring.
I use to repel off chimney rock walk up the holler between chimney rock and half moon not a arch but there was a big rock shelter that was awesome there was a path that led off of the half moon trail to get to it but try as I may I could not find it last time I was there I just thought of that looking at these cool pictures of the Gorge thanks for showing.
Cool list. I'm new to RRG and I will be seeing Gray's Arch on my first trip. Glad to see it ranks #4.
Nice video ! Cant wait to explore Kentucky someday . Live in Central Illinois and the closest arches are McDonalds and one in St. Louis :-(
I was just there for my second visit in backpacking, such a beautiful area. Millers is addicting, every time I go there I stock up on goodies. I have seen 3 of these so far. Hoping to catch some of the others in more trips I do there.
SkinnyGPanda I'm already addicted. There's a few in here I must see!
Thank you for making this! Looking forward to visiting it.
I have such a soft spot for Whittleton Arch. It’s such a massive and unique feature. I think it’s completely underrated.
Nice vid
This video looks like it was fun to make. Nice job dudes
That video was badass. Keep up the great work.
You guys have a great channel thank you. I'm glad Redbyrd is number one we found it last year via the Douglas trail.

Hi ap, as of now we do not know of a map including all of RRG's arches. We have however heard good things about the maps from outraGIS, perhaps you could try those. Thanks for watching.
So many that didn't make the cut. Princess Arch, Cherokee arch...Rock Bridge? ... TImmins? You guys have more videos to do!
This is Johnny Bluegrass here, went to Cherokee arch this weekend, and I was flummoxed! Wow, great suggestion Reagan L.! You were right, I believed I had seen the best...until Cherokee. We have to pay penance for this one!
Good to hear! I hope you took your video camera!
Timmons Arch is awesome!!!!
