Niagara Gorge- Whirlpool Trail
The Good Ole Gorge
Well, I guess the time has come to talk about what is probably the most famous hiking spot in Niagara, the Niagara Gorge. Now in particular we’re gonna be talking about the Whirlpool Trail, which if done in my manner, yields about 3.5 km of hiking, and a really good workout.
Alrighty, at the bottom of the stairs, you continue straight along the rocks. You kinda weave your ay through this next bit, but pretty much the gist is, go as straight to the water as you can, and then turn right and follow that trail. Eventually you will reach a little bay, this is the point to which you start your trek. You follow the whirlpool signs along the waters edge, you’ll see some really nice viewpoints, and few spots to dip your hands and take a break.
Eventually you’ll make your way up a little crevasse and you’ll come to the most workout part of this hike. These stairs are painfully laid out, very awkwardly spaced and it takes a toll on your legs, but when you reach it, boy will you be glad.
From here, you just walk back along the paved path to the parking lot and you’re all done, a nice cool down from the hike.
Not many points of interest around, but tried to show you the parking lots, and threw a point on Great Wolf Lodge
