Take a Wellness Break at the Falls: 3 Days of Rest & Relaxation

Get ready for a relaxing getaway in Niagara Falls USA where art, nature, food and wellness activities abound.

Day 1

Pamper Yourself

Looking for the best spa experience in Niagara Falls, New York? Head straight to The Spa & Salon at Seneca Niagara Resort and Casino. Choose from an extensive list of spa treatments such as an aromatherapy massage, oxygen facial, or sea salt lavender body scrub followed by a steam or soak in the whirlpool tub.

After feeling refreshed, head out to Freedom Run Winery in Lockport to experience their yoga class, which entails an invigorating hour of instructor-led movement followed by a wine tasting, hosted every other Sunday.

For dinner, enjoy a relaxing farm-to-table meal at Carmelo’s in Lewiston with fresh ingredients and house-made pasta in every delicious Italian dish.

Day 2

Revitalize Your Creativity

Take an art break at one of the many art museums around the county, such as Castellani Art Museum of Niagara University, home to original works by Andy Warhol, Faith Ringgold, Jean-Michel Basquiat and more.

If the weather’s nice, take it outside to discover original murals along Art Alley NF or playful sculptures at Artpark in Lewiston.

Massage your mind with creative expression at Imagine That Studio & Gifts in Olcott, where adults and kids can partake in painting, crafting and pottery classes.

Day 3

Time in Nature

Experience the breathtaking natural beauty of the area, starting with a walk through Niagara Falls State Park and a moment of deep, even breathing as you gaze upon the majesty of the Falls. As a bonus, the mist from the waterfalls releases negative ions, which create natural endorphins for you to soak in along with the view.

If you prefer calmer waters, head to Lockport for a rejuvenating walk along the Erie Canal. For a more adventurous wellness excursion, take a guided bike or kayak tour from Niagara Outfitters and discover scenic views and natural history.

What's better than eating fresh food while getting some fresh air? Pack yourself a picnic and head to one of these scenic spots for the perfect meal with a view. Make a stop at Singer Farms to pick up healthy goodies such as fresh tart cherry juice, organic garlic, and more for you to take home.

If you're visiting in July, pay a visit to the family-owned Kin Loch Farmstead, where you can pick your own lavender and wander the beautiful lavender fields on select dates. Plus, shop a variety of handmade lavender products — think magnesium lavender sleep butter, lavender soy candles, and lavender olive oil, just to name a few.
