9 Clifton Hill Attractions to Try This Winter

9 Clifton Hill Attractions to Try This Winter

After the Falls themselves, Clifton Hill is one of must-visit areas in the city. During the day families and entertainment seekers flock to the area for fun and games, while at night it becomes a hub of glittering and sparkling lights.

Niagara Falls is home to year-round fun, making it the perfect place to spend a winter getaway!  Here are nine things to check out this winter on Clifton Hill:

1) The Niagara SkyWheel

A striking sight from any angle on the hill, the SkyWheel will have you soaring 175 feet above the Falls in climate controlled gondolas - perfect for winter sightseeing.  Whether you ride during daylight or at dusk, you'll be dazzled with views of the Falls, Clifton Hill and the entire city of Niagara Falls. 


2) Ripley's Believe It or Not Museum

You won't miss this building on Clifton Hill! Wonder into the seemingly sideways building with King Kong on top and discover some of the wackiest exhibits, believe it or not... 


3) Movieland Wax Museum of the Stars

Discover famous movie scenes and celebrities up close and personal! Mingle with Taylor Swift, hangout with Johnny Depp or snap a selfie with some of the biggest stars in entertainment.


4) Strike Rock n' Bowl

Enjoy 14 lanes of rockin’ 10 pin bowling located in a massive entertainment complex that becomes the epitome of nightlife. If you get tired of knocking down pins, enjoy the high-tech arcade or grab snacks at Boston Pizza - all located under the same roof.

5) House of Frankenstein

Here in the House of Frankenstein there are many 'monsters' who lurk in the shadows, not living - and yet, not dead! See for yourself, the abominations that move and talk and who will make you scream!


6) Canada Trading Company

For one-of-a-kind Niagara souvenirs and gifts, step inside the Canada Trading Company. Whether you're in search of unique souvenirs to bring home or to grab a sweater to warm up - you'll find it at Canada Trading Company.


7) Nightmares Fear Factory

One trip to Nightmares will give you enough scare to warm you right up! Once the location of a coffin factory, and with over 120,000 visitors who have chickened out, this attraction is definitely not for the faint of heart.

8) Big Top Mirror & Laser Maze

Get lost in one of the six incredible maze experiences housed under the 'Big Top'.  Test your navigation skills and escape the chaos, if you dare!

9) Casino Niagara

Just around the corner from the bottom of Clifton Hill, try your luck at Casino Niagara where the fun never stops with more than 1,300 slot machines on two floors.
