Niagara Toronto Trekkers Hike the Niagara Gorge


Yesterday the Toronto Niagara Trekkers had a busy day exploring Niagara Falls. In the morning, we enjoyed a continental breakfast provided by the hostel, then we biked South to the Rainbow Bridge, and crossed back into the USA. Then, we boarded the Maid of the Mist for some breath taking views of the American falls and the horseshoe falls in Canada! After our voyage, we biked north up the Niagara River and ate our lunch at Whirlpool State Park. For an afternoon activity, we hiked down into the gorge to Devil's Hole and watched motor boats struggle to go upstream against the river's heavy current. Finally, we returned to our hostel in Canada where we made pita pizzas and Oreo truffles. Before bed, we finished our day with a round of rose bud thorns.
