Brock's Monument, Greater Niagara Travel Guide

Getting There

• Public Transit

  From downtown Buffalo, head to the nearest NFTA Metro Rail station, which is at Lafayette Square. Take the Metro Rail towards University Station. Get off at the last stop, then transfer to the NFTA bus #40 (Niagara Falls) from the bus terminal just outside the station. Stay on the bus until you reach the stop for Niagara-on-the-Lake, which is approximately a 30-40 minute ride. From the bus stop, walk about 15 minutes north along Niagara River Parkway until you reach Brock's Monument, located at 14184 Niagara River Pkwy.

• Bicycle

  If you prefer cycling, you can rent a bike from one of the many rental shops in downtown Buffalo. Start by cycling towards the waterfront and take the scenic route along the Niagara River. Follow the river north until you reach the border to Canada. You will need to cross the Rainbow Bridge to enter Niagara-on-the-Lake. Once across, continue biking north on Niagara River Parkway for about 10 minutes until you reach Brock's Monument, which is well-signposted.

• Walking

  For those feeling adventurous, you can walk to Brock's Monument, but keep in mind that it’s a lengthy journey. Start from downtown Buffalo and head north on Main Street until you reach the edge of the city. Continue walking towards the Niagara River and follow the riverbank until you reach the border. Once you cross into Canada via the pedestrian walkway on the Rainbow Bridge, continue walking along the Niagara River Parkway for about 2 miles until you arrive at Brock's Monument.
