Mianus River Gorge

The Mianus River Gorge is a nature preserve jointly owned by The Nature Conservancy and the Mianus River Gorge Preserve. It is located in Bedford, New York. The first were purchased by the Preserve, with help from the Conservancy, their first land preservation deal. It has grown over the years and is still managed by the Preserve. In March 1964, it was designated a National Natural Landmark for its old growth climax hemlock forest and the gorge of the Mianus River.
