Columbia Icefield Skywalk - An HONEST Review 2022

**Updated : October 2022**
Earlier this month we were given the opportunity to head out on a tour with Pursuit Collections on the Columbia Icefield Skywalk - although this was gifted to us as part of a collaboration, the following review is our complete, honest opinion.

Information about the Jasper Skywalk

The Columbia Icefield Skywalk is located in Jasper National Park, about a two hour drive from Banff. Once you park at the Columbia Icefield Discovery Center, you'll take about a 10 minute bus ride to the Skywalk itself. Ticket prices change everyday depending on how busy it is, so we recommend checking online to plan on visiting on the least busiest/expensive day during your trip. The Skywalk has glass floors, with stunning views of the Sunwapta Valley from 918 feet up. Once you arrive you have as long as you'd like to hang out on the Skywalk, with buses bringing people back to the Discovery Center every 15-20 minutes.

Our Experience

Yes. DO IT. This was such an adrenaline rush and we had such a fun time hanging out on the Skywalk! We've done many other glass floors before (Skydeck in Chicago, Space Needle in Seattle) but none of them have ever had a view like this. We had driven by a few days before and it honestly hadn't looked too exciting from the road, but once we got out on the glass it was incredible! It does get a little crowded, but since we had as much time there as we wanted we just took our time waiting for it to clear out a bit. If you don't have a car to drive up from Banff you can also hitch a ride on the Brewster Bus Tour! We 100% recommend getting out on the Skywalk for a fun time with the whole family!

**Fun Fact : to withstand the amount of wind the valley gets sometimes, the Skywalk is designed to move and shift, so you will feel it moving as you make your way across!
