Parks & Nature

Not only awesome "Parks and Nature", but considered one of the Seven Natural Wonders of the World. A must see for everyone. Hike the trails that span over the rushing Niagara River, Take the "Maid of the Mist" boat ride under the falls, what a rush! Even just rock climbing around the falls, or picnicking in the park area, with the most beautiful view in the world as your backdrop.
