A long walk from the whitewater rafting point but well worth it. The ride across the top of the whirlpools was wonderful. Highly recommend

It's a great park away from the crowds at the falls. Just follow the parkway to Whirlpool Park and take in the beauty of the gorge, Canada and the whirlpool. You get a great view of the Whirlpool Aero Car on the Canadian side.

You can walk along the top or the bottom of the escarpment. The walk down isn't too bad but the walk up can make you wish there was an elevator. Beautiful scenery and views,and traces of the old railroad are visible. Picnic area on top. Restrooms.Free
