Glacier Skywalk, Columbia Icefields

A short distance from the glacier, we were shuttled over to the Glacier Skywalk. An engineering marvel, this Skywalk extends out of the mountain providing the most spectacular view of the mountains and Glacier in the backdrop. Walking on 4 layers of bullet proof glass you can see a full 360 view, 918 feet over the Sunwapta Valley below. The Skywalk cost 21 million to build and was built in 2014. They provided us with handheld devices to listen to a guided tour of the Skywalk which was quite interesting to hear.
