The Red River Gorge wouldn’t be the place we all love without the river itself.

This beautiful video was created by Friends of Red River (FORR), a local nonprofit dedicated to protecting and improving this incredible place through monthly river cleanups, educational events like Red RiverFest, and projects that expand public river access.

Every bottle picked up, every piece of litter removed, and every volunteer who gives their time helps preserve the Gorge for wildlife, locals, and visitors alike.

If you love the Red River Gorge, please consider supporting the people who work behind the scenes to keep it beautiful. Better yet, grab a trash bag and join one of their cleanups. Together, we can make a real difference. 💚
