5 Things to Know About Driving From Brampton to Niagara Falls

Take Highway 401 East to 403 South, then merge onto the QEW toward Niagara. This route drops you directly on the Canadian side of the falls.

Without traffic, the drive takes about 90 minutes. That is the best-case scenario on a clear day with light traffic.

With traffic, expect delays — it is the QEW. The QEW is notorious for congestion, especially on weekends and holidays.

The route is straightforward with no major turns. Once you are on the QEW, you follow it all the way to Niagara Falls.

Plan for extra time if driving during peak hours. Rush hour and tourist season can easily double your travel time.
