Highlights include the Cave of the Winds, where students can explore the gorge and the new “World Changed Here Pavilion,” a multimedia exhibit that delves into the historical significance of the falls. During this interactive experience, students discover the geological formation of the falls and its role in hydroelectric power development, reinforcing STEM and environmental science concepts.
A popular attraction is the “Hurricane Deck,” where students can get soaked while standing just feet from the Bridal Veil Falls, providing a sensory encounter with the force of nature. The Maid of the Mist boat tour offers another thrilling adventure, guiding students through the heart of the falls, surrounded by the thunder of cascading water and scenic rock formations.

Group reservations at the park offer timed entry to reduce waiting, and teachers receive resources to enhance student engagement during and after the visit. For schools unable to travel, virtual learning options are available, making the educational value of Niagara Falls accessible from anywhere.
