Niagara Funicular

A view unlike any other, niagara city cruises has brought a piece of history back to the niagara gorge.

In 1894, the Niagara Parks and River Railway first opened the Clifton Incline Railway. Now, over 28 years after the original cars ceased operations, Niagara City Cruises anchored by Horblower, teamed up with AnCam Solutions Company of Oakville, Ontario, to make something old new again. From 2017 to 2019, we constructed, installed, and launched two state-of-the-art funicular cars that now operate along the Great Gorge wall. Extra care was taken during construction not to disturb the stratified walls of the gorge, or it’s vegetation, preserving the natural flora and fauna.

Today, the modern Funicular transports visitors along the 18,000-year-old rock walls of the Niagara Gorge to and from the boat boarding area. With a total distance of 56 m or 185 feet, our funicular is equal to an elevator approximately 19 stories tall but on an angle.

The temperature-controlled glass-enclosed cars feature audio commentary and priority seating. They also give riders unobstructed panoramic views of the Canadian Horseshoe and American Falls, as well as convenient access to our Riverside Patio and boarding area. It’s a one-of-a-kind adventure you don’t want to miss!

What's Included?

• Convenient Transportation  (to/from our Riverside Patio and Boarding area)
• Comfortable Climate-controlled  (protect against the weather)
• Incredible Views
• Audio Commentary
• Wheelchair Accessibility
