Frozen Fairy Tale

WINTER ISN’T FOR EVERYONE. BUT YOU’RE NOT EVERYONE, ARE YOU?

Frozen Fairy Tale

oKwe get it. Not everyone likes winter weather. But for those of us who do, our neck of the northern woods is the place to be.

Come the fi rst deep freeze, Niagara Falls transforms itself into an icy wonderland fi t for a fairy tale–the trees surrounding Terrapin Point taking on a delicious glaze of frozen mist. In the coldest of winters, the roaring torrent freezes and becomes an awe-inspiring ice bridge linking the United States and Canada. Experiencing that awe and wonder is easier than ever with the year-round opening of the Cave of the Winds at Niagara Falls State Park. A short elevator ride takes you to the base of Bridal Veil Falls and access to a series of walkways–watch your step they are slippery when frozen–that bring you into the heart of Niagara’s kingdom of ice. If Niagara in winter isn’t on your bucket list, it should be. |
