Qu'est-ce que the grand canyon skywalk ?

The Grand Canyon Skywalk is a horseshoe-shaped cantilever bridge that extends over the edge of the Grand Canyon in Arizona, USA. The bridge was opened in 2007 and offers visitors a breathtaking view of the canyon from 4,000 feet above the Colorado River. The structure is made of steel and glass and can hold up to 71 million pounds of weight.

Visitors to the Skywalk walk along a glass walkway that is 10 feet in diameter and hangs 4,000 feet above the canyon floor. The glass panels used in the walkway are five times stronger than normal glass and can withstand the weight of about 800 people.

The Skywalk is located on the West Rim of the Grand Canyon, which is owned by the Hualapai Tribe. Visitors can only access the Skywalk through a tour arranged by the tribe. The tour includes transportation to the site, a tour guide, and access to the Skywalk, among other things.

The Skywalk has become a major tourist attraction and has been featured in various movies, TV shows, and advertisements. It is a unique way to experience the Grand Canyon and provides visitors with an unforgettable view of one of nature's most awe-inspiring creations.
