The tour guide on the trolley said this part of the park is often said to be the most romantic. I can definitely see that. It's kind of tucked away from the main part of the falls and there are several bridges connecting these little islands. I can see where the flames of young love are fanned by beautiful scenery in an easy, short little walk.

Driving around Niagara Falls, went out to Goat Island and stopped at Three Sisters Islands, which is basically three small islands off Western side and named after three daughters of General Parkhurst Whitney.

The islands are a cute place for a nice walk and enjoy nature. The day we were out we saw a number of seagulls and a couple of mallards swimming around. It was cold but I love hearing the water go over the rocks and the small falls that feed into Niagara. It can be very relaxing and you can see the Canadian side from these islands also.

In nicer weather, a good place for a picnic, bird watching or just a nice stroll and they have bathrooms nearby.

We have visited Niagara Falls several times over the years and it seems to change slightly by season but this is the first time we visited Three Sisters Island. The amount of water flowing down the river made this trip different from the others. Access the island through Niagara State Park was easy...bypass the paid parking area and go straight to the island where parking is free. The paths on the island are wide and not crowded. The view from the island to the top of the Horseshoe Falls is truly incredible. Great place to spend an hour.

This little offshoot of Goat Island is a great little spot. While picnicking on Goat Island this is one of the locations I took a walk to. It is a great spot for another view of the Canadian skyline and the Canadian Rapids.

It was freezing wet weather. Definitely needed to dress warm. There is free limited parking on Goat island so we parked and walked around. Its a beautiful view of the birds and the rapids. We could see Canada across the border and lovely sunsets.

We just happened upon this little surprise while driving the scenic route on the Lake. Parking is limited to 20 mins.. but if you hustle it's all you need.. there is longer parking very near by in separate lot. The closeness to the rushing waters is very exciting. The teens we had with us were truly impressed. WE all were..

We hit this site last after visiting the main attractions in Niagara Falls Park. We drove around and were able to find a parking spot in the free parking lot (3). From there it was just a short walk over a couple of bridges to see the mighty rapids. It’s a quiet area with many amazing views.

We walked around as part of the park. It was so pretty. There are signs to keep you safe. The water is powerful and fast moving. We took some awesome pictures and may have to go back again just to look at nature’s power.

Three Sisters Island can be reached by a short walk from Goat Island. It offers great views of the rapids.
