Skywalks Around the World That Test Your Fear of Heights (Image Credit: Canva)
Sure, your legs might shake and your brain might scream ‘nope!’, but skywalks give you a rush nothing else truly can and honestly, once you take that first step, the views are so immaculate that it makes all the fear worth it. Let us check out some of the craziest skywalks around the world that will test your fear of heights.
Zhangjiajie Glass Bridge , China
This one looks like it has come straight out of a video game. The Zhangjiajie Glass Bridge stretches over 430 metres across a canyon and hangs 300 metres above the ground. The floor? Completely made out of glass. So yes, you can see straight down while walking, and some brave souls even take selfies lying on the glass, imagine the heart scare!
Grand Canyon Skywalk , USA
If you thought that the Grand Canyon couldn’t get any more dramatic, then wait till you step onto its glass skywalk. The horseshoe-shaped bridge sticks out over the edge, with nothing but a 4,000-foot drop under. It is terrifying, but also insanely beautiful, and you will never be able to look at the canyon the same way again.
Glacier Skywalk , Canada
Tucked in Jasper National Park, the Glacier Skywalk curves out from a cliff over 900 feet above the valley. Clear glass under your feet, mighty glaciers in front of you, and rushing waterfalls way down below, it is like nature’s IMAX; instead, you are the main character here.
Dachstein Skywalk , Austria
This one is called the ‘Balcony of the Alps’ and for a very good reason. At nearly 9,000 feet high, this glass skywalk gives you full 360-degree panoramic mountain views. And if that is not enough to make your stomach flip inside out, there is even a suspension bridge nearby to take your adrenaline to the next level.
Skywalk X , Macau
Forget about floors, this one skips the floor altogether. The Skywalk X at Macau Tower lets you walk around the edge of the tower strapped in with just a safety harness. No rails, no walls, and no extra security. It is basically like an action video game coming to life!
