The 25 miles long Niagara River is the connection between the Erie Sea and the 62 miles long Ontario Sea, which forms the Niagara Falls: in the East the American Fall (height: 180 ft / 55 m, width: 1148 ft / 350m), in the North the Canadian Fall, also called the "Horseshoe Fall", (height: 161 ft / 49 m, width: 2788 ft / 850 m. The falls are best viewed from the Canadian site, where also is located the "Skylon Tower", an observation tower, which offers a breathtaking panoramic view of the whole area and enables that you to watch, how the water of the Ontario Sea pours into the Niagara falls. Most impressive for us has been a boat ride along the bottom of the falls. In this way we experienced this raging force of the nature with all our senses. We heard and saw the thunderous water masses fall down from the height and the sea spray sprinkled on our raincoats. These were unforgettable and unimaginable impressions - one simply must have experienced this .
