Journey Behind the Falls
Journey Behind the Falls is one of the most iconic attractions at Niagara Falls, allowing visitors to experience the power of the waterfall from a unique perspective. Guests descend about 125 feet by elevator and walk through tunnels carved into the rock behind the falls. Observation portals open directly behind the rushing water, where you can hear and feel the thunder of the cascade. The experience also includes outdoor viewing platforms at the base of Horseshoe Falls, where visitors get incredibly close to the roaring water and mist. It’s a short but unforgettable way to experience the immense force of the falls.
Duration: 30 minutes

Inside, the centre offers restaurants, gift shops, washrooms, and access to the popular attraction Journey Behind the Falls. It’s one of the closest places you can safely get to the falls and serves as a starting point for many Niagara Falls experiences.

Niagara Falls
Niagara Falls is made up of three separate waterfalls: Horseshoe Falls, American Falls, and Bridal Veil Falls. Horseshoe Falls, located mostly on the Canadian side, is the largest and most powerful, known for its curved shape and massive flow of water. American Falls sits entirely on the U.S. side and features a wide cascade that crashes over large boulders at the base. The smaller Bridal Veil Falls is separated from American Falls by Luna Island and is named for its delicate, veil-like appearance. Together, these three waterfalls form one of the most famous natural attractions in the world.
