The Limestone Gorge is a chasm of limestone tiers slicked with water falling to a streambed that shows off the Rowland Member, one of seven geological layers in Broad Run Park. Patches of old-growth trees dot the Gorge — chinkapin oaks and American beech trees that predate the settlement of the area.
