I know you can see Toronto from Niagara-on-the-lake but if that's possible then you should be able to see Niagara-on-the-lake from the CN tower, right? I just wanted to know because I plan on going up there next month.

Ringbell.co.uk says that at an observation level of 1150 feet, the horizon is 42 miles away.

The distance between Toronto and Niagara-on-the-lake is 32 miles. So I should see the US side of the lake as a thin line on the horizon. But I can't find any photos of this and nobody seems to have done this so that's why I come here.

How far can you see from the top of the CN Tower?

On a clear day, you can see as far as 160 kilometres (100 miles) from SkyPod\u2014all the way to Niagara Falls and into New York State. The antenna on top of SkyPod is longer than a football field and gets struck by lightning on an average of 75 times per year. The CN Tower sways in the wind.

Can you see across Lake Ontario?

The north shore of Lake Ontario, or the Canadian shoreline! Typically, when you look over Lake Ontario from Oswego or anywhere along the south shore of Lake Ontario you do not see any land mass when looking north, but every so often the Canadian shoreline will appear for a short while!

Does Lake Ontario touch the US?

It is surrounded on the north, west, and southwest by the Canadian province of Ontario, and on the south and east by the U.S. state of New York, whose water boundaries meet in the middle of the lake.
