Great
Gorge - Don't Just Take Vacation - Have An Adventure
At the Great Gorge Adventure
the Niagara River is transformed into the spectacular Whirlpool Rapids,
a
thundering avalanche of stupendous power and beauty. Here you stroll
right next to the raging rapids, deep within one of nature's most
spectacular settings.
Located in the
Niagara Gorge 3.2 kilometers (2 miles) down from the Falls, the Rapids
rage and roar on their journey into the Niagara Whirlpool.
You can thrill to the sight from the Great
Gorge Adventure's
"Whitewater Boardwalk", a 305 metre (1000 foot) long promenade along
the very edge of the river. Here, long time ago, tumbled the waters of
Niagara Falls. As the cataract eroded the underlying rock, it carved
out the deep Great Gorge in its retreat. The process unveiled the epic
of Earth's eon, visible today in the strata of the looming Gorge wall,
a sort of history book written in rock.
Popular with artists, geologists and
historians, the Great Gorge
Adventure is a favourite with visitors from all over the world. A
beautiful
stroll, an awesome panorma.
