The 1000 Islands Tower (formerly known as 1000 Islands Skydeck) is a unique tourist attraction located between the spans of the 1000 Islands International Bridge on Hill Island. Running continuously, the elevator takes only 40 seconds to reach the first of three observation decks and provide visitors with a spectacular photographic opportunity as they enjoy the panoramic view of the 1000 Islands and St Lawrence River stretched out 400' below. The first deck is glass enclosed and wheelchair accessible. Visitors can browse our Gift shop, exchange Currency and enjoy a Cup of Coffee in our Skydeck Cafe.

Interesting place it’s been here for years and was and always a treat to stop and get some good views of the thousand Islands area. Elevator ride to the top was pleasant and very fast. I remember this place is a kid I enjoyed it done and I enjoy it now some 50 years later. John on the observation deck very helpful and knowledgeable one different areas to look at and history of different things in the area. He mentioned some other places that we should check out while we are in the area and we are grateful for his suggestions we had a great time at the first railway tunnel in Canada up in Brockville. definitely worth a stop and we look forward to another visit some other time.

CLOSED as of October 3rd, for the 2020 season. Stay safe and see you in 2021. No fee but please look for our RED DONATION BINS. Key features of the Tunnel restoration include a paved concrete floor, a music program and state-of-the-art energy efficient lighting for safety and to highlight the Tunnel’s architecture and geology. Canada's First Railway Tunnel was completed in 1860 for the Brockville and Ottawa Railway and later owned by the CP Railway until being acquired by the City of Brockville in 1983. The Tunnel is a remarkable example of Canada’s pre-Confederation industrial heritage that has been repurposed for the benefit of recreation, tourism and economic development. . * Daily Access may be limited due to private rentals.

The Railway Tunnel is located in downtown Brockville and is a free attraction, although donations are welcomed. We stayed in an AirBnB in Brockville and were in walking distance to the tunnel. The tunnel is quite a bit cooler than the outside air and a light sweater or raincoat is good to have during summer months. Water occasionally drips from above, but it wasn’t too bad. You can walk the tunnel in about 30 minutes (one way). Inside the tunnel is a music and light show that lasts 90 minutes and repeats. The tunnel is open from spring to fall and closes after a special show around Halloween.
