Canada’s highest suspension bridge is open for the summer. If you dare to walk it, you will see just how high it truly is.

It originally opened last year and allows visitors to walk 426 feet above a massive canyon that will reportedly make you feel like you are literally in the sky.

Although it does look terrifying, it’s neat to see that the tallest suspension bridge in Canada resides right here in B.C.

  • Forest and canyon ridge walking trails
  • Treetop Village play park for families
  • Canyon Swing & Zipline
  • Outdoor BBQ and entertainment plaza
