A Plan to Float Visitors 65 Feet from the Grand Canyon's Edge
The “Skywalk,” a cantilevered, U-shaped glass-bottomed pedestrian bridge that will loop 3,800 ft. above the Colorado River, is gradually taking shape at the edge of the Grand Canyon.
The structure and accompanying visitor center are being built by the Hualapai Nation as part of the larger Grand Canyon West development in northwestern Arizona. Privately financed at an estimated cost of more than $30 million, the complete project also includes a Western ranch and village on the rim of the canyon.
