White Water Walk Niagara Falls

2 miles/3 kilometers from the falls. Take an elevator to the bottom of the Niagara Gorge and enjoy a walk along the boardwalk adjacent to the mighty rapids of the Niagara River. Open April through October.  Part of the Niagara Parks “Adventure Pass”

Lower Niagara River Rapids

Take the elevator 70 meters (230 feet) down into the gorge, then walk through the 73 meter tunnel. The Boardwalk beside the rapids is 305 meters (1,000 feet) and stairs lead to two observation areas at the edge of the River. The water travels at different speeds along the length of the Niagara River.  South of the Falls where the river is wide and slow, the maximum speed is about 40 km/h.  Near the brink of the Falls, a speed of 109 km/h has been recorded.  As the water travels through the Whirlpool Rapids at White Water Walk, it is traveling at about 48 km/hr or 30 mph, creating the Whirlpool Rapids – “Class 6 white-water rapids”.

Viewing area & Walkway at the “Great Gorge Adventure”.
