Event comments

Please note: the Village Diner hours above are generally correct. However, it sometimes happens that the diner is closed for staff vacations etc. In that case, we highly recommend being prepared to use our on-line start box option. Restrooms available if diner closed midway on the route at Old Fort Niagara Visitor Center. Parking available if you wish to start your walk here. Recommended if you wish to tour the Fort and Museum. Excellent experience. Not to be missed. OSB walkers send a SASE to POC with $2 for a patch or pin featuring the 1812 flag on display in the museum.
