About The Canadian Horseshoe Falls
Welcome to the magnificent Canadian Horseshoe Falls. You are looking at the largest and most spectacular of the three waterfalls that collectively form Niagara Falls. Located entirely within Ontario, Canada, this specific cascade handles over 90% of the entire Niagara River's volume, making it a world-class wonder.
The distinctive curved shape of the crestline spans roughly 670 meters (2,200 feet) wide. The mesmerizing emerald green color of the water you see on the live camera is entirely natural—it is created by an estimated 60 tons of dissolved minerals and finely ground rock powder swept over the falls every single minute.
