Visited on 21-June-2022: Its a must watch attraction during your visit to the Niagara Falls. It offers you to watch the furry of the Niagara river from a very close view point in the gorge. Ancient rocks on both sides of the gorge not only offer a mesmerizing view but also a respite from the heat on a warm summer day due to their low temperature. Parking is available on the road and in the specified lot 3$CAD/h. An elevator takes you down the gorge 23 storeys. As soon as you come out of the elevator you feel the coldness of rocks, which has caused the air to condense on the surface of the rock you can feel the water droplets by touching the rock while walking in the tunnel. Most Importantly, you don't need to do any hike to enjoy this view, so its very family friendly and perfect for all ages. Minimum 30-min are needed to finish the entire board walk but for taking pictures and to enjoy the moment, anywhere from 1-1.5h should be enough. There is no official time limit on the time spent here. If you feel very hot on a warm day and want to go back to your hotel, better to go here as you will feel a totally different weather down there. Tickets can be purchased on site 17$-Adult but better to check online for updated info before heading out due to Covid A Niagara Pass is also available that includes more attractions, so you can check which option suits you better.
An awesome must see when you visit Niagara Falls. Do yourself a favor and don’t just see the Falls and go home. Make sure you visit White Water Walk. It’s not far from the Falls and doesn’t take too long to enjoy it. You will take a quick elevator down 20 stories and emerge right at the roaring river’s edge. It is only then will you appreciate the power and beauty it the Mighty Niagara River. These are the highest rated 6 white water rapids there are. This adventure will show you why they are rated so high. You will continue to take an easy walk along the boardwalk stopping at some areas that allow you to venture out onto a deck to get right up to the river and feel and hear its power. I can’t stress enough how great an experience this is and please don’t skip it when you visit the Falls. There is a small gift shop, prices seemed reasonable. Also make sure you ask for a parking pass for your dashboard so you don’t have to pay to park. There are about a dozen spots out front. There were some large lots across the street but I cannot say if it’s ok to park there as they may be private lots. Lastly there are some very informative plaques located as you get off the elevator and along the boardwalk. Take the time to read them and you’ll find out why the water is green and why a dog survived the rapids but his owner didn’t among other interesting facts.
We did his walk with my 70-year old father and 10-year old son. My father does not have major mobility issues. The boardwalk only had one spot with stairs, but it's right at the end and only if you want to be a bit closer to the water at the last lookout. The walk is slanted down was you walk to the end, but it's a gentle slope. Most of the walk was shaded when we went right at opening in the morning. We all enjoyed walking alongside the fast moving rapids. It was a great experience.
Lovely place to visit- especially if you want to get away from the hustle and bustle of the falls but still enjoy natures beauty and power. My son and I quite enjoyed all the pictures and reading the facts/history posted there about the area. I am definitely glad that we made it one of our stops while we were in the area.Visited onWeekendWait timeUp to 10 minReservation recommendedNo
The white water walk is pretty neat, and a must see attraction in Niagara Falls. The trail runs alongside the mighty Niagara river, and features class 6 white water rapids. Being so close to them was exhilarating to say the least. We could practically FEEL the force of the river flowing right beside us! I’d certainly would suggest making this a stop if you are visiting the falls. The trail itself was shorter than I thought it would be, but the viewing platforms bring you right up close to the river. At the time of our visit, some of the extended viewing platforms were closed, but that did not take away from the adventure.
Great close up view of the Class 6 rapids that you can't get elsewhere in the area. The walk is not long, maybe 15 minutes if not stopping, with several overlook points. We saw a small raccoon grooming during our trek. Parking is free and overflow is across in the Buddha temple lot.Visited onWeekdayWait timeNo waitReservation recommendedYes
You begin by going down 120 feet by elevator which can be quite a wait depending on the day and time, and when the doors open you're greeted with a boardwalk that runs directly alongside the Niagara rapids. The entire boardwalk can be completed in about 20-30 minutes, and the walk includes multiple areas along the way where you can take stairs down to a lower area. This is great area for pictures and to fully immerse yourself in the Niagara experience.
What an awesome experience.Not far from Niagara Falls so manage your plan to visit this beautiful area. This is one of the wildest rivers with vibrant green colour and 48km/h which is breast taking. Highly recommended. If you buy your ticket online, you should stay in line to print then go to another line for elevator waiting around 30min because there is only one elevator. Then you come 23 stories down to pass a cold tunnel around 50M to the river. Better to bring your own water but if you forgot there is a small store next to elevator or two refrigerator vending kiosks for selling soft drinks at the end of the tunnel. It would be nice to bring your own small snack, there are some benches and garbage bin there. All the boardwalk is shaded even in the noon, totally around 200M oneway and it takes 30min easy walk family friendly but for taking photos and enjoying time it would be 1or 2 hours. Admission fee for adult is 17$ and 11.25$ for child. No time limit. Parking is available in the road for 3$ per hour but it will be full quickly so go early. There is a free parking lot in whirlpool aero+ washrooms but 700M walking to whitewater river. No washrooms in the whitewater.Small store next to elevator.
I love this place. If you want to get up close and personal with the rapids south of the falls, don't really want to get wet, and don't want to climb down a ton of stairs - come here. The volume and power of the water is astounding.
This was quite the fun experience. It was so lovely to walk at your own leisure along the rapids and take in the beautiful scenery alongside the powerful falls. Staff were absolutely charming. They were knowledgeable, warm and friendly.Visited onWeekdayWait timeUp to 10 minReservation recommendedYes
