General presentation
Chutes du Niagara
Monumental falls, gorge and rapids of the Niagara River make up a spectacular and very accessible stay.
To understand what Niagara Falls is, look at Falls of the Cheval Iron, Journey Behind the Falls and White Water Walk. These places give us a view of a territory marked by urban life, riverscapes, natural spaces and leisure worlds and allow us to move from emblematic sites to more intimate stages.
See all
For a stay of 2 to 4 days, a quiet rhythm works well. Also to be anticipated: conditions to be checked according to the season. A car is usually the easiest way to connect different sectors. The main sites are generally easy to access.

Places worth visiting
A selection to start dreaming and organizing the stay — not an exhaustive list of everything there is to see.
Waterfall
Chutes du Fer-à-Cheval
The huge curve of the Fer-à-Cheval Falls concentrates the bulk of the Niagara flow in a continuous crash. From Table Rock, the water flows a few meters from the visitor and the sprays make the power of the site much more sensitive than a distant view.
Nature and panorama
Journey Behind the Falls
Tunnels dug in the rock lead behind the curtain of the Fer-à-Cheval Falls to a platform at the foot of the waterfall. Rumbling, vibrations and projections offer the most physical experience of Niagara; waterproof protection is indispensable.
Place indismissible
White Water Walk
A bridge runs along the Class 6 rapids at the bottom of the Niagara Gorge. The elevator is located almost at the water level, measuring current speed and the depth of the waves from several nearby platforms.
Nature and panorama
Niagara Parks Butterfly Conservatory
Under a large tropical canopy, thousands of butterflies travel freely among waterfalls and lush plants. The walk is short but immersive, particularly pleasant with children or when the weather makes the gazebo less welcoming.
