Combine a head-under-water perspective with sky-high views: descend 125 feet into the roar at Journey Behind the Falls, then rise 775 feet to Skylon Tower’s observation deck. An included Tesla-themed audio tour ties the visits to century-old hydroelectric history.
More ways to explore the area's outdoor wonders
You step into the glass elevator of Skylon Tower and the city falls away; mist from Horseshoe Falls threads the air below while the observation deck opens a panorama that reads like motion—water racing, boats dotting the river, and the rim of the falls curving like a raw seam in the landscape.
