Bird Island Pier is a great place to spend a lovely day

Fishermen, joggers, dog walkers, and families going for a walk all enjoy this photogenic path along the Niagara River and Lake Erie.

BUFFALO, N.Y. — Perhaps you've seen the long walkway that goes under the Peace Bridge when you've been driving along the I-190 and wondered how to use it.

The Bird Island Pier is a walkway that normally stretches for a couple of miles alone the Black Rock Canal, where the rowing teams practice. 

However, an ice and wind event a couple of years ago has pushed part of the walkway into the canal about a mile in. But it's still a lovely walk on a pleasant Buffalo day.

To access the walkway, head to Broderick Park, at the end of West Ferry in Buffalo. Follow the signs to the Bird Island Pier.
