Journey Behind the Falls

Teal Map Marker IconAdd to Itinerary

To stand at the heart of Niagara, you’ll first need to descend 125 feet and explore 130-year-old tunnels through the bedrock, but you’ll feel the thunderous vibration of the Horseshoe Falls long before you see them.

The observation deck at the foot of this 13-storey-tall wonder will leave you breathless (and maybe a little bit wet), but don’t forget the viewing portals cut straight through the rock, offering a once-in-a-lifetime view of one-fifth of the world’s fresh water crashing down in front of you.

Explore the Storied Tunnels

After journeying deep into the bedrock, navigate fascinating tunnels that lead behind the Horseshoe Falls. You’ll find incredible cave-like portals that open behind the falling water, where you’ll see, hear and feel the power of the falls up-close at Journey Behind the Falls!

Lower Observation Deck

Make your way to the lower observation deck to see one of the world’s most beloved natural wonders from a perspective few have witnessed. Feel the power of nature’s force as you stand just feet away from the mighty Niagara Falls, surrounded by the ancient rock formations carved by centuries of relentless flow.

Journey Through Time

Journey Behind the Falls holds a rich history, dating back to 1832 when the first staircase was constructed down into the Niagara Gorge for visitors to enter what was then called the “Sheet of Falling Water” attraction. This history is celebrated and showcased throughout a refreshed queuing area featuring all-new exhibits.

Go on a journey through time, from the formation of the Falls to the first Indigenous inhabitants and the rise of Niagara Falls as a global tourism destination.
