The main geographical feature of the region is the Niagara Escarpment, running in an east-west direction. The best known portion of the escarpment is where it meets the Niagara River, creating the beautiful Niagara Falls. Elsewhere in the region in the vicinity of the escarpment and there are many parks and conservation areas to be explored, many smaller waterfalls to be seen, and many great views to be found.

The Niagara Region is home to some of the best farmland in Canada (although the area's proximity to Toronto also attracts human settlement, and farmland has been devoured by urban sprawl in certain areas over the past few decades). The climate makes grape-growing feasible, and there are over 60 Cafes in the area, most of which are in the towns of Lincoln and Niagara-on-the-Lake.

The area is quite historic, having been the first area in Southern Ontario to be settled as well as a main battleground during the War of 1812. This legacy is especially celebrated in Niagara-on-the-Lake.

Tourism is a large part of the economy, and the region attracts over 12 million visitors per year from all over the world.

Muslim Friendly Hotels

The city of Niagara Falls is well-equipped to handle the huge numbers of visitors it receives, with a large number of hotels, motels, and inns in all price ranges. Nonetheless, during the height of tourist season (in particular weekends in July and August), it can be hard to find rooms in the budget to mid-range categories. During these times it's best to book in advance.

Lodging in downtown Niagara Falls means you'll be close to the attractions and have a wide choice of accommodations and restaurants, however and the area can seem very busy, 'tourist,' and noisy. Staying at a hotel or bed & breakfast in Niagara-on-the-Lake or in the smaller towns of country can be a more relaxing experience.

There are a number of campgrounds in Niagara Falls, and at the Ball's Falls, Chippewa Creek and Long Beach Conservation Areas.

Stay Safe

The Niagara Region is very safe.

When hiking, take adequate supplies (water, food, safety equipment), wear sturdy hiking footwear and dress with the weather in mind. For safety, don't hike alone. Most trails are not maintained in the winter months.
