Seasonal Travel Pick: Niagara's River Road

The closest I've ever been to Niagara Falls is that picture on the starch cans that typically ruins River Roadyour iron after a while. In fact Niagara doesn't rank high on my list of must-see places, but seeing how it is a continuously growing list and after reading Guylaine's story at Go World Travel on the  Niagara River Road, I'm sure I could squeeze it in somewhere. Instead of visiting only to awe at the falls, Guylaine offers an alternative natural wonder which runs parallel to the water and is perfect for this time of year. The Niagara Parkway, also known as the river road for locals is an amazing display of fall colors, orange, red, yellow and green hues which the author compares to a gallery of Impressionist paintings. Perfect for driving along on the road or closer interaction such as walking or biking on one of the paths, the river road proves a great way to explore the change of seasons. For those of you wishing to get much closer to the falls than the starch can check out the story for additional restaurant recommendations, festivals, and facts about the area.
