Hiking in the 'Little Grand Canyon' abundant with limestone arches, sandstone ridges, mountain laurel and rhododendron.
For an overview of this rich geological region see http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Red_River_Gorge Several books that describe the numerous trails are available. A very accessible recommendaton is Jerrell Goodpaster's 'Red River Gorge Trail Guide'.
