The gorge is about four miles long and spans 950 acres. It also boasts the only bike trail in Ohio's state nature preserve system; more than 4 miles of paved bike trail crosses the preserve.
The ridge rises to about 1,116 feet and it’s covered in black oaks, shagbark hickories, and northern red oak trees on the upper slopes. From the top of the ridge, you usually can see the Columbus Skyline to the northeast. Lower slopes have sugar maples and American beech trees.
