Hit the trails

Explore the Niagara Parks trails that offer 15 kilometres of hiking footpaths through six different nature areas along with a 56 kilometre paved Niagara River Recreation Trail from Niagara-onthe-Lake to Fort Erie and discover distinctly local flora and fauna among the impressive prehistoric geological formations.

Into rock climbing and bouldering? Head to Niagara Glen Nature Centre to get your permit and climb on!

Get soaked and feel the rush with Whirlpool Jet Boat Tours as your captain navigates the Devil’s Hole Rapids or opt for a drier ride with the new Freedom Jet boat. Take a walk on the wild side with Niagara Parks’ White Water Walk and marvel at the relentless power of the Niagara River’s Class 6 white-water rapids. Voyage into the belly of the beast with Niagara City Cruises and get caught in the mist for a moment you’ll never forget. For another epic view, see the whirlpool from high above with a ride on the historic Whirlpool Aero Car.

Take It Up a Notch

Satisfy your inner daredevil with these bucket list activities:

Navigate a series of suspended obstacles at WildPlay Whirlpool Adventure Course overlooking the river

Experience the thrill of human flight with Skydive Burnaby or Niagara Freefall & Interactive Center

Plunge towards the mighty falls at speeds up to 70km/h on WildPlay Zipline to the Falls

No matter what time of year you visit, it always feels like summer when you’re splashing around at one of the colossal indoor waterparks – Fallsview Indoor Waterpark, Great Wolf Lodge and Waves Indoor Waterpark . From thrilling waterslides to wave pools and giant tipping buckets, you’ll feel like you’re on a tropical getaway with balmy temperatures 365 days a year.

The family fun never stops. Niagara Falls has everything you need for the ultimate vacation.

For animal lovers, both the Bird Kingdom world’s largest indoor free-flying aviary – and the Butterfly Conservatory – with more than 2,000 fluttering butterflies –allow for educational and interactive experiences you won’t get anywhere else. Head out on a jungle adventure at Safari Niagara or plunge into the aquatic world of Marineland – both theme parks have all-ages splashpads to cool off on a hot summer day.
