"Gorge" in context

Gorge is a narrow, often steep, and long ravine between mountains with a river or stream running through its bottom. Gorges often have a rocky bottom, with cliffs that rise on both sides of the river or stream. Gorges are often thought of as canyon-like places, although technically the two types of landform are different. Gorges are considered the most scenic of all the landforms because of their aesthetic value. They offer a breathtaking view of the surrounding landscape.

Gorges are formed by a combination of geologic and fluvial processes that generally occur over a very long period of time.
