Buffalo to Niagara Falls
35.1 miles: 1 hours, 39 minutes

Niagara Falls to Rochester
109.3 miles: 2 hours, 26 minutes
Rochester is due east of Niagara, and you could get there faster on a main thoroughfare, but then you’d miss some amazing views on SR 18. You won’t find many rest stops along the two-lane, fruit tree-lined byway, but on this journey, you’ll gaze at the shining waters of Lake Ontario before you arrive.
Rochester to Buffalo
