Cool hiking trails - the first leg is a super tall staircase which is kind of scary cuz you feel like you're gonna fall between the steps lol. But once you get over that, there's a lot of super pretty views of the Niagara Gorge (you can watch people in boats in the rapids). It's pretty moderate, nothing too crazy, unless you want to climb the rocks on the edge to get closer to the water. There's also picnic area in the front where you can chill after you do the hike.

Parking: it is 8.00 CAD per hour. Be prepared. The park is clean, well-maintained. The washroom is clean. We'll marked trails and the effort to reach the riverbank is worth it; the landscape is stunning.

We did the Whirlpool loop hike here and it was the hike with most stunning views! The hike was difficult and challenging but will definitely do it again! Lovely time spent with friends. The place also has a huge park where you can plan a picnic !

We had a great hike on the main loop which was so much fun. The views were just so spectacular. It was a sort of hard hike yet it was worth every last bit. It was very easy to follow the trail so that you wouldn’t get lost which was very helpful. It was very peaceful and the only sounds you could hear were the rapids of the Niagara River which followed a big part of the trail.

One of the best places for hiking. There are many hiking trails and some lead to this beautiful view where you relax by the rocks. It is a pretty popular place but has plenty of parking. I absolutely recommend it 10/10

Great views of the river and gorge. Good mix of moderate and challenging trails. Stay on the main trail but if you want some challenge, go to the whirlpool trail. If you reach the beach, you already passed the stairs going up to the street.

An amazing and really beautiful spot. The trail takes about an hour and a half and there weren’t many people, so we could enjoy it peacefully. Perfect for getting away and connecting with nature. Loved it.

Scenic Trails and Natural Beauty The Glen boasts over 4 kilometers of trails that wind through pristine forest, ancient boulders, and alongside the turquoise waters of the Niagara River. The trails vary in difficulty, with some sections featuring steep and rugged terrain, making proper footwear essential. Visitors often highlight the breathtaking views and the sense of tranquility found within the Glen.

One of my favourite places in Niagara…. It’s like entering another world, one that time forgot. Breathtaking views, nature in its primal form the raw power of the water , huge rocks fallen from the gorge walls, caves, steep walls and paths for all levels of hikers can be taken all the way to the whirlpool and beyond if desired. Also some great fishing as well. Truly a spot to behold .
