First Day Hike

It is not necessary to have a dog to participate, however, all dogs in attendance must be up-to-date on immunizations, leashed, and under control. 6 foot non-retractable leashes.

Meet in front of the Education Center next to the Ralph C. Wilson, Jr. Welcome Center at Parking Lot 1 inside Niagara Falls State Park. Please arrive 10-15 minutes prior to the start of the program. Programs are free.

Parking is limited and $10.00 parking fees may apply. Please note, the parking lots inside Niagara Falls State Park fill up quickly on weekends (Friday through Sunday) and holidays, which often results in heavy traffic entering the park from the Niagara Scenic Parkway.

Additional parking lots can be found on Rainbow Blvd. and near the Seneca Niagara Resort & Casino in the city of Niagara Falls.

These programs are intended for individuals and families. For more information or accommodations please call (716) 282-5154 for the Niagara County Office or (716) 549-1050 for the Erie County Office.

Please note that we do not allow pets on our park programs unless otherwise specified. This does not apply to service animals. Thank you for your cooperation.
