EasyFor people looking to exercise their minds more than their bodies. There’s minimal walking and not too many stairs.
ModerateThese programs get you on your feet and include activities such as walking up to a mile in a day through a city and standing in a museum for a few hours.
ActiveFor people who enjoy walking as much as two miles a day, perhaps to explore historic neighborhoods or a nature trail.
Moderately ChallengingFor hardy explorers who enjoy a good physical challenge, spending most of their days on the go.
ChallengingGet ready to keep up with our highest-energy group. These demanding — and rewarding — programs are for seasoned outdoor enthusiasts.
Join us to examine three of the most fascinating aspects of the “Niagara” region in New York— from one of the world’s iconic natural wonders, the majestic Niagara Falls, to the bountiful Niagara Wine Trail, and finally a moving chapter in American history, the Underground Railroad. Awaken all of your senses as you explore this most beautiful region.


Highlights

• Take an expert-led boat ride on the Maid of the Mist to observe scenic sites on both sides of the border with insights into the geology, hydro power and Native American history and culture of the area.
• Field trips encounter a beautiful combination of wineries, scenic farm vistas and rural life, where you'll sample native Niagara wines.
• Visit key historical sites and view a special Underground Railroad art exhibit at Niagara University.
