Admire Jasper National Park’s spectacular beauty from the illuminating and exciting Glacier Skywalk. A 1,312-foot-long (400-meter) walkway that extends nearly 100 feet (30 meters) into Sunwapta Valley, the Glacier Skywalk provides unobstructed views of Alberta’s mountain peaks and glacier-formed valleys. The observation platform at the end of the walkway puts you almost 1,000 feet above the valley floor, with a glass bottom to give you an extra thrilling experience.

Columbia Icefield Skywalk
Step out on a cliff-edge walkway where giant glaciers perch above you and the spectacular Sunwapta Valley spreads out below. The Columbia Icefield Skywalk experience features waterfalls, wildlife, fossils and more on an exciting 1-kilometre walkway that leads to a platform where glass is all that separates you from a 918-foot (280 m) drop. The walk is presented in an interpretive storytelling format that will connect you to the natural world in a deep and meaningful way. You must park at the Columbia Icefield Discovery Center and take the bus to the Skywalk.

For the price, that's great. I wouldn't pay more than that, though. It's like a little outdoor museum until we get to the bridge. These are beautiful pictures to take!

Very worth the cost and the shuttle/bus ride from the main Columbia Icefields building. I would do it again!
