Columbia Icefield Skywalk

Get a new perspective on the Rocky Mountains at this awe-inspiring interpretive experience. The main feature is a glass-floored observation platform that provides 360-degree views from 280 m (918 ft) above the Sunwapta Valley. Before seemingly stepping into this air, visitors enjoy a fully accessible 1 km (0.6 mi) cliff-edge walkway that provides views of glaciers, waterfalls, fossils and wildlife. This is all complemented by engaging storytelling that will give you an appreciation of geology and the processes that shaped this landscape. But it’s safe to say that what will stay with you is the observation platform suspended over the valley. It’s a thrilling experience that offers visitors unparalleled views and makes the Columbia Icefield Parkway an informative and unforgettable destination.
