行程紀要:

早上離開民宿後於07:30左右抵達Niagara Falls Visitor Center Parking Lot,我們已訂09:00霧中少女號(Maid oh the mist)的瀑布遊船之旅,由於距搭船尚有一段時間,所以先前往“Schoellkopf 發電廠遺址”參觀。

Schoellkopf 發電廠遺址”位在彩虹橋(Rainbow Bridge)北邊約0.4哩的Niagara River河岸懸崖下,有提供免費乘坐電梯進入尼亞加拉峽谷(Niagara Gorge),下到峽谷後您將能夠看到尼亞加拉峽谷、尼亞加拉河、彩虹橋以及曾經是世界上最強大的水力發電廠的遺跡。“Schoellkopf 發電廠”於 1956 6 7 日倒塌到尼亞加拉峽谷,現在大部分場地被霧中少女號(Maid of the Mist)遊船公司用作維修區和淡季船隻存放場。

Niagara Falls State Park (美國端)霧中少女號遊船之旅(Maid of the Mist Boat Tour)

參觀完“Schoellkopf 發電廠遺址”後回到霧中少女號(Maid oh the mist)搭船入口處,從驗票口進入經過Niagara Falls observation tower搭乘電梯下到遊船碼頭;

從工作人員手中拿到一件藍色的雨衣(加拿大端拿的是紅色雨衣),上船就緒後遊船緩緩地駛離碼頭,沿著尼加拉河朝上游前進;

遊船首先經過美國瀑布(American Falls)和新娘面紗瀑布(Bridal Veil Falls),在瀑布下方看瀑布和從瀑布上方看瀑布那種感受是截然不同的,從尼加拉河遊船上看瀑布可以直接感受到瀑布狂瀉直下而產生的巨大水氣與浪花,氣勢洶湧有如千軍萬馬,真是驚心動魄。

American Falls()Bridal Veil Falls()並列,瀑布下方紅色部分則是風洞之旅(The Cave of the Winds)的木棧道。

 

遊船一路駛過美國瀑布(American Falls)”新娘面紗瀑布(Bridal Veil Falls)”,當遊船駛近馬蹄瀑布(Horseshoe Falls)時,仰望瀑布從天而降,氣勢磅礡,真是令人震撼難忘,尤其當遊船越接近瀑布時,現場雷鳴聲相當震撼,燕鷗在瀑布前飛舞,水霧不斷噴發,尼加拉瀑布的水噴的超遠,在船上就像被強颱豪雨狂吹猛打的感覺,雨衣根本抵擋不住這強風暴雨,每個遊客幾乎是全身濕透,帶相機者鏡頭如沒特殊保護,整個鏡頭幾乎都是水,是非常有壞掉可能的。
