Stunningly beautiful place. It is a hidden gem and is particularly noticeable in winter when the edges of the river are frozen while chunks of ice float away in the middle of the river. The snow was very clean and free of road salt and you can see Canada across the river which makes for some cool pictures. Very unassuming place and doesn't even have markings or boards making it difficult to spot. A great place to just sit and relax overlooking the river and the soft clean snow (if you visit in the winter).

Paved trail along the Niagara River from Buckhorn State Park to Beaver Island State Park. The trail is fairly flat with two overlooks and some benches scattered along the trail to stop and rest at.

The Buffalo River Trail is one of the finest backpacking adventures in mid-America—if not the best due to its wilderness setting, superior scenic beauty....
