Visitors to Niagara Falls Can Get a New, Never-Before-Seen View From a 100-Year-Old Tunnel

A Niagara Tunnel experience starts with a 180-foot descent into the generator hall in a glass-enclosed elevator. Then there’s a 2,200-foot-long path to get to the light at the end of the Tunnel. Here, there’s a new viewing platform that looks out over the river and a panoramic view of Niagara Falls and the lower Niagara Gorge that, previously, only washing water was privy to.

“With the opening of the Tunnel, the incredible transformation that has taken place over the past two years to restore the power station and transform it into a one-of-a-kind visitor attraction is officially complete,” Niagara Parks Chair April Jeffs said in a statement. “This is truly a landmark achievement and one that has and will continue to draw the interest and adoration of a global audience while preserving this heritage building for future generations of Ontarians.”
