Built in 1966, this relatively new funicular is the only funicular still operating in Niagara Falls, Ontario.

In 2007, a one-way fee is $2.00(C) for all ages. However, many vistors purchase a one-day Niagara Parks People Mover bus system pass and unlimited riding of the funicular is included with that pass.

Stollers are permitted on the funicular, but it is not wheelchair accessible.

The funicular operates seasonally typically from the beginning of May to the end of October. Hours of operation vary depending on when during the season. Please visit the above People Mover link for details and fees.

The listed coordinates are from the base of the funicular (Niagara River side).
