Skywalks aren’t only popular in Taiwan—their expansive aerial views and thrilling sense of height also captivate travelers worldwide. In Jasper National Park within the Rocky Mountains of Alberta, Canada, there’s the Glacier Skywalk, which quickly became a hotspot in the Rockies shortly after its completion.

Canada’s Glacier Skywalk stretches 500 meters in length, extending outward in a parabolic curve from the canyon and suspended 280 meters high on the solid cliff above the Sunwapta Valley. The walkway consists of two main sections: a mountain-looping trail and a 30-meter-long horseshoe-shaped glass platform that juts out over the cliff. Combining architectural ingenuity with breathtaking natural beauty, it provides an exhilarating experience for visitors.
Walking on the reinforced transparent glass, you can feel the slight sway of the walkway as the wind blows—truly thrilling. (Image source / inhabitat)
