Hualapai Skywalk Details

The Hualapai Skywalk is the latest addition in a long history of providing visitors access to the wonders of the Grand Canyon. The Skywalk is the only way short of a helicopter or plane tour to get a birds-eye view of the canyon. Built by the Hualapai nation -- a Native American tribe that has lived in and around the canyon for generations -- the horseshoe-shaped Skybridge reaches out 70 feet beyond the rim of the canyon and is suspended 4,000 feet above the Colorado River. The glass floor of the Skywalk gives you the feeling or walking on air above the canyon. You can't just drive your car up to the edge of the canyon and pay for a Skywalk ticket. The Skywalk is part of the Hualapai Nation's Grand Canyon West attraction, so you'll need to buy a tour package in order to experience the Skywalk. The Legacy Gold package includes Skyway admission, shuttle rides to canyon viewpoints at Eagle Point, Guano Point, and Hualapai Ranch, a meal at one of the viewpoints, a $5 gift-shop voucher, and photo opportunities with tribal members. Cameras aren't permitted on the Skywalk, but there are free lockers for your belongings and you can purchase photos taken by vendors.
