Overview
The drop, then the canyon floor
The glass bridge spans the canyon between two cliffs, with a clear floor and a long view down the valley. It is one of the most talked-about sights in the region.
After the crossing, a trail leads down through the canyon past streams and waterfalls, finishing with a short boat ride. It works well as a half day, or combined with other areas.
