Journey Behind the Falls

Journey Behind the Falls is a year-round Niagara Falls attraction built into the rock beside the Canadian Horseshoe Falls at Table Rock Centre. Visitors descend by elevator to tunnels and a lower observation platform near the base of the falls, including two short passageways that reach behind the waterfall and reveal the water rushing past cave-like openings. Opened in 1889 with guided lantern-lit tours, it was repeatedly altered as erosion made earlier sections unsafe. New concrete-lined tunnels opened in 1944, a lower platform followed in 1951, and the site was renamed in 1994. It remains a close-up encounter defined by the falls’ force, noise, and spray.
