Journey Behind the Falls

I thought that the Journey Behind the Falls would be an amazing experience. I was somewhat disappointed. It was very crowded which we expected, but we all felt packed into the walkways/tunnels. You could go right behind the falls and there was a fence like thing to prevent you from going too far.

At the one end, there was an area where you could walk out and look at the falls from the side. Additionally, you could see the American falls as well. That part was pretty nice and we took a lot of cute pictures there. They give you these rain ponchos to wear so you don't get completely soaked.

You are taken under the most magnificent waterfalls. It's really magical. Cooperstown is worth a visit for the baseball fans, but there isn't much else to do in that area. We bought our Halloween pumpkin on the side of the road and that was fun to have a New York pumpkin.

Put on a raincoat, because you will get wet and they have them there for you to wear. Walk down under a tunnel literally underneath the Falls. You can go out onto a deck and stand right up next to the Canadian Falls, or, if you do this attraction on the American side in New York, you can stand next to the American Falls. If you are in a wheelchair, an elevator can take you down.

Journey Behind the Falls

Visitors to Niagara Falls can enjoy the thunder of the waters from a completely different perspective by visiting The Journey Behind The Falls attraction, located in the Table Rock House Plaza beside the Canadian Horseshoe Falls. The observation platform at the base of the falls is easily reached by elevators and a network of tunnels.

Two other tunnels provide a close-up view of the Falls from behind. The tunnels extend only 46m (150 feet) behind the waterfall, so there is not a lot of walking. And you can explore it all at your leisure; the excursion is completely self-guided.

Journey Behind the Falls

You look behind the Canadian side of the falls from the holes in the tunnel, which were made in 1889. This is 150 feet long. You will go down by the elevator from inside of the table rock complex. They will give you a poncho. This is disposable and you can take it home as a souvenir. We brought the baby and stroller, and we were asked to leave the stroller before getting into the elevators, so my husband had to carry him. I wish I knew so that we could have brought Baby Bjorn with us.
