Itinerary
Prospect Point
10 minsAdmission Ticket FreeHere we are at Niagara Falls’ most iconic vantage points: Prospect Point. Don’t be afraid to go up to the railing for a closer look! On July 28, 1954, a British newsreel captured a terrific natural phenomenon at this location, known as the Prospect Point Rockfall. The day before this event, a nine-year-old boy spotted cracks along the ground and raised the alarm about the stability of the point.Hells Half Acre
10 minsAdmission Ticket FreeWe’re crossing rapids known as Hell’s Half Acre. Spooky! This is the site of one of the most infamous tragedies of Niagara Falls. On the evening of July 18, 1853, three men who’d been drinking were rowing from Goat Island to the mainland. Unfortunately for them, their boat capsized and the river sent them tumbling downstream.Niagara Falls Observation Tower(Pass by)
Admission Ticket FreeWe’re walking on the Niagara Falls Observation Tower, standing 282 feet above the ground. If you purchased tickets for the Maid of the Mist, the elevators in this building will go down to where the boats dock. Before you jump on the boat, check out the main observation deck, ahead, through the enclosed area.Niagara Falls Visitor Center Parking Lot 1(Pass by)
Admission Ticket FreeWelcome to the mighty Niagara Falls! Let’s dive right into this awe-inspiring natural wonder! Our tour begins at the parking lot by the Visitor Center. When you’re ready to begin, start walking into the park, following the blue route line on your map. NOTE: The tour is over 2 miles long, with more than 31 audio stories, and takes about 1-2 hours to complete. This isn't an entrance ticket. Check opening hours before your visit. Buy once, use for one year! Ideal for extended visits and return trips over the next 12 months. ⚠️ Note: Parking at Niagara Falls State Park lots does require a fee (varies by season).Niagara Civil War Monument(Pass by)
Admission Ticket FreeThis is the Niagara Civil War Monument. Being so far north, you might expect that the Civil War had relatively little impact here in Niagara Falls. But you’d be wrong. In fact, Niagara Falls was actually a crucial stop on the Underground Railroad prior to the war! Formerly enslaved people fleeing toward freedom would come here as their final stop before escaping across the border into the safety of Canada.Luna Island
10 minsAdmission Ticket FreeWhile this island is small and uninhabited, it is situated neatly between the American Falls and Bridal Veil Falls, making it the perfect place to get a close, intimate look at Bridal Veil Falls. It’s like you’re standing right on top of them, just on the brim of the river. It can be a little scary if you’re not one for heights!Nikola Tesla Monument
10 minsAdmission Ticket FreeSee the statue of the man who appears to be reading a large map of some kind? That’s Nikola Tesla. If you look closely, you can see he is wearing rubber overalls, a typical garment worn by engineers in the twentieth century to protect them from electric shock. Look even closer and you may realize that the large paper is not a map; it’s blueprints! This statue was created to honor Nikola Tesla’s impact on the hydroelectric efforts at Niagara Falls.Cave of the Winds Lookout
10 minsAdmission Ticket FreeCave of the Winds Lookout offers incredible views of the Bridal Veil Falls. Well, views is an understatement. At the lookout, you’ll be able to taste, smell, hear, and be drenched by the waterfall, even if you’re trying your best to stay dry. That’s because, though visitors are given an iconic yellow poncho referred to as the yellow sou'wester, the lookout is so close to the falls that hardly anyone is spared the chilling spray of water misting up from where the falls crash onto the rocks below.Terrapin Point
10 minsAdmission Ticket FreeWelcome to Terrapin Point. It’s the closest American lookout to the Horseshoe Falls. If you look straight across to the observation point on the other side, you may notice folks on the Canadian side marveling at the same wonder as you. It’s kind of like a reflection!Three Sisters Islands
10 minsAdmission Ticket FreeThrough the dense greenery to our right, you may be able to catch a glimpse of Three Sisters Islands. Before European settlement, these islands held great significance for the Indigenous peoples of the region, particularly the Iroquois Confederacy. They considered the falls and the surrounding area a sacred place, and the islands played an important role in their ceremonies and rituals.
