Red River Gorge Scenic Byway
Sky Bridge, KY

Sky Bridge Arch is a ridge top arch. Millions of years ago erosion created narrow sandstone ridges. Over the years, these ridges were exposed to the elements, wind, sand, erosion, and arches eventually formed.

Sky Bridge is one of the most popular and the largest arch in the Red River Geological Area. The arch is accessible from a .6 mile trail that passes over and beneath Sky Bridge. The trail makes a loop as it goes over a high cliff shelf and back to the parking area. The trail passes through many varieties of plants and overlooks out into the Red River Gorge.
