Парк штату Вірпул

Парк штату Вірпул – це денний парк із дитячим майданчиком, столиками для пікніка та павільйонами, пішохідними та велосипедними прогулянками, природною стежкою, риболовлею та біговими лижами. Центр для відвідувачів відкритий протягом літніх місяців з 9:00 до 16:30 з середи по неділю.[1] Кам'яні сходи в межах парку спускаються в Ніагарську ущелину; 300-футова (91 м) секція сходів була реконструйована в 2016 році.[6] Парк з’єднаний із сусіднім державним парком «Диявольська діра» стежкою «Диявольська діра» на дні ущелини, а також стежкою вздовж краю ущелини, які разом утворюють повну петлю. Це проїзд без зупинок (якщо не потрібно)

Державний парк Ніагарський водоспад

Державний парк Ніагара-Фоллз — державний парк у місті Ніагара-Фоллз в окрузі Ніагара, Нью-Йорк, США. Парк, визнаний найстарішим державним парком у Сполучених Штатах, містить Американський водоспад, водоспад Фата нареченої та частину водоспаду Підкова (також відомого як Канадський водоспад).

Водоспад весільної фати

Водоспад Фата нареченої — найменший із трьох водоспадів, які складають Ніагарський водоспад. Він розташований на американській стороні (в штаті Нью-Йорк); Острів Луна відділяє його від Американського водоспаду, а Козячий острів від водоспаду Підкова. Водоспад Bridal Veil звернений на північний захід і має гребінь шириною 56 футів (17 м). Оскільки острів Луна дуже маленький, Фата нареченої схожа на Американський водоспад, починаючи з вертикального падіння на 78 футів (24 м), за яким вода бурхливо спускається по осипах до басейну Діви Туману на висоті 103 фути ( 31 м) нижче. Загальний перепад висот становить 181 фут (55 м). Висота водоспаду становить 508 футів (155 м).

Острів трьох сестер

Острови трьох сестер - це острови, які лежать біля південного узбережжя острова Гоат. Острови є частиною Ніагарського водоспаду, Нью-Йорк. До острова Трьох сестер, куди можна дістатися з Гоат-Айленду, розташовані за межами Канади/США. кордону в Ніагарському водоспаді, Нью-Йорк.[1] Острови названі на честь Селінди, Анджеліни та Асенат Вітні (всі троє поховані на кладовищі Оквуд (Ніагарський водоспад, штат Нью-Йорк), дочок генерала Паркхерста Вітні з Ніагарського водоспаду, Нью-Йорк.[2][3] Генерал Вітні (також похований) на кладовищі Оуквуд (Ніагара-Фоллз, штат Нью-Йорк), був одним із найвидатніших ранніх поселенців Ніагара-Фоллз, штат Нью-Йорк. Генерал переїхав до Ніагара-Фоллз, штат Нью-Йорк, у 1810 році та найбільш відомий як засновник і оператор готелю Cataract House, розташованого біля верхніх порогів прямо над водоспадом. Вважається, що дочки генерала Вітні були першими поселенцями, які пішли на три маленькі острови

Ніагарський водоспад

Водоспад Підкова, також відомий як Канадський водоспад, є найбільшим із трьох водоспадів, які разом утворюють Ніагарський водоспад на річці Ніагара вздовж канадсько-американського кордону. Приблизно 90% річки Ніагара, після відведення для виробництва гідроенергії, протікає через водоспад Підкова. Решта 10% тече через водоспад Американський водоспад і Фата нареченої. Він розташований між Террапін-Пойнт на Гоат-Айленді в американському штаті Нью-Йорк і Тейбл-Рок у канадській провінції Онтаріо.[2]

6

Ніагарський водоспад

Американський водоспад є другим за величиною з трьох водоспадів, які разом відомі як Ніагарський водоспад на річці Ніагара вздовж Канади та США. кордону. На відміну від набагато більшого водоспаду Підкова, приблизно 90% якого знаходиться в Онтаріо, Канада, і 10% в американському штаті Нью-Йорк[2], Американський водоспад повністю знаходиться на території Сполучених Штатів.

7

Козячий острів

Козячий острів (попередня назва — острів Айріс) — невеликий острів у річці Ніагара, посеред Ніагарського водоспаду між водоспадами Фата нареченої та водоспадом Підкова. Острів знаходиться в південно-західній частині міста Ніагара-Фоллз (і округу Ніагара), Нью-Йорк, США, і є частиною державного парку Ніагара-Фоллз. Козячий острів не має жителів, але є місцем для туристів, які відвідують водоспад зі сторони США. Тут є кілька точок огляду, в тому числі з Террапін-Пойнт. Острів Гоат з’єднаний із материковою частиною США двома мостами, які пересувають пішохідний, автомобільний і безрейковий рух поїздів, а з меншим островом Луна (поруч із Американським водоспадом) — пішохідний міст. Козячий острів в основному вкритий лісом і переплетений пішохідними стежками. Екскурсійний ліфт Cave of the Winds забезпечує доступ до підніжжя водоспаду.

Оглядова вежа Проспект-Пойнт (також відома як оглядова вежа Ніагарського водоспаду [2]) — вежа в Ніагарському водоспаді, штат Нью-Йорк, США, на схід від Американського водоспаду.

Bridal Veil Falls

The Bridal Veil Falls is the smallest of the three waterfalls that make up Niagara Falls. It is located on the American side (in New York State); Luna Island separates it from the American Falls and Goat Island separates it from the Horseshoe Falls. The Bridal Veil Falls faces to the northwest and has a crest 56 ft (17 m) wide. Luna Island being very small, the Bridal Veil is similar in appearance to the American Falls, starting with a vertical fall of 78 ft (24 m), followed by the water violently descending the talus boulders to the Maid of the Mist pool 103 ft (31 m) below. The total vertical drop is 181 ft (55 m). The crest elevation of the Falls is 508 ft (155 m)

13

Three Sisters Island

The Three Sisters Islands are islands which lie off the south shoreline of Goat Island. The islands are part of Niagara Falls, New York. Accessible from Goat Island, the Three Sisters Islands are located just beyond the Canada/U.S. border in Niagara Falls, New York.[1] The islands are named after Celinda, Angelina, and Asenath Whitney, (all three are buried in Oakwood Cemetery (Niagara Falls, NY) daughters of General Parkhurst Whitney of Niagara Falls, New York.[2][3] General Whitney (also buried in Oakwood Cemetery (Niagara Falls, NY), was one of the more prominent early settlers of Niagara Falls, New York. The General moved to Niagara Falls, N.Y. in 1810 and is best known as the founder and operator of the Cataract House Hotel located near the upper rapids just above the falls. General Whitney's daughters are believed to be the first settlers to have trekked to the three small islands

14

Niagara Falls

Horseshoe Falls, also known as Canadian Falls, is the largest of the three waterfalls that collectively form Niagara Falls on the Niagara River along the Canada–United States border. Approximately 90% of the Niagara River, after diversions for hydropower generation, flows over Horseshoe Falls. The remaining 10% flows over American Falls and Bridal Veil Falls. It is located between Terrapin Point on Goat Island in the US state of New York, and Table Rock in the Canadian province of Ontario.[2]

15

Niagara Falls

The American Falls is the second-largest of the three waterfalls that together are known as Niagara Falls on the Niagara River along the Canada–U.S. border.

Goat Island has no residents, but is a destination for tourists visiting the falls on the U.S. side. It has several viewing points, including from Terrapin Point. Goat Island is connected to the U.S. mainland by two bridges that carry foot, car, and trackless train traffic, and to the smaller Luna Island (adjacent to the American Falls) by a pedestrian bridge. Goat Island is largely wooded and is interlaced with foot trails. The Cave of the Winds tour elevator provides access down to the foot of the falls.
