Oldest American state park and public golf course

Established in 1885, Niagara Falls State Park is the oldest state park in the United States. Cave of the Winds is located on Goat Island and is where visitors can use the wooden walkways to have an up-close encounter with Bridal Veil Falls, the smallest of the three waterfalls that make up Niagara Falls. If locals want to get a picturesque view of Niagara Falls, they will have to visit the Rainbow Bridge, which requires a passport. Beyond the Falls, the state park also features hiking trails like the Great Gorge Scenic Overlook Hike, a one-hour round-trip hike that is ideal for those looking for an easy but scenic trail. Hyde Park on Pine Avenue is known by locals as the “Jewel of Niagara Falls.” Its public golf course features two 9-hole courses and one 18-hole course and offers golfers a scenic and challenging playthrough. After a round, they can dine at Kelly’s on the Green. On Wednesday and Thursday nights, locals are seen participating in the park’s bocce league. During the warmer months, residents can have a picnic at one of the pavilions. It is a popular destination for large social gatherings.
