The Niagara Parks Power Station + Tunnel provides an educational, entertaining and inspiring field trip for students of all ages!
Your students will learn in-depth how this hydroelectric power generating station, the first major power plant on the Canadian side, harnessed the incredible energy of the Horseshoe Falls and turned it into a great source of electricity for over a century. This hands-on experience will let your class discover STEM and history through immersive exhibits, including the impressive Tesla Coil, and restored artifacts.
Enjoy a guided tour or a self-guided bilingual audio tour with engaging historical and technical insights about the power station. Then, descend 180 feet below ground to access the 2,200-foot tunnel for an extraordinary view of the Falls from the river’s edge.
