NIAGARA FALLS ACCESS FOR DISABLED VISITORS
High
above the floral parks along the falls, Skylon Tower provides stunning views of
the American and Horseshoe falls.
The
best viewing is at twilight.
We walked and rolled the short distance from
our hotel to the 520-foot tall tower.
On
the plus side for disabled guests, Skylon has ramped entrances, wide common
areas and excellent elevators to the observation deck
On
the down side, only the indoor viewing area of the observation deck is
wheelchair accessible.
The
breathtaking outdoor viewing area can be reached only be steps.
But
even from the glass-enclosed observation deck, Niagara’s pool below the falls
looks pretty amazing nearly 800 feet down.
In
daylight, rainbows often arc over the Horseshoe Falls.
During
many evenings, a light show bathes the cascading water in multiple colors.
The
panoramic view also includes the neon lights of Clifton Hill – where adults can
buy tacky souvenirs, gorge on carnival candy and indulge themselves in all the
things they didn’t get enough of as a kid.
Having
fun, that’s what Niagara Falls is all about.
