Hop off at <strong>Niagara Falls GO Station<\/strong> and you&#8217;re just a few pedal strokes from the scenic <strong>Niagara River Recreation Trail<\/strong>, a 56-kilometre paved path that runs from Fort Erie to Niagara-on-the-Lake. This route hugs the Niagara Gorge, weaving past wineries, lookout points, and even historic battlefields.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Prefer a loop with a little less distance and a lot more flavor? Ride from Niagara Falls GO Station to Queenston Heights and back, stopping at fruit stands, tasting rooms, and riverside parks. With GO Transit, your bike becomes your passport to vineyards, villages, and vistas.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1366\" height=\"911\" src=\"https:\/\/www.cliftonhill.com\/falls_blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/couple-in-niagara-1366x911.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-60376\"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>The Ride That Clears Your Mind<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Beyond fitness and transportation, cycling&#8221;\u201despecially in nature-rich destinations like Niagara&#8221;\u201dhas proven mental health benefits.
