Grand Canyon West is a unique set of tourism experiences focused on the West Rim of the Grand Canyon. Founded in 1988, GCW gives more than 1 million annual visitors the chance to explore one of the World's Seven Natural Wonders by land, sky and water -- and the chance to experience Hualapai culture and excellent food in culturally and environmentally sensitive surroundings. Less than a two-hour drive from Grand Canyon West, the Hualapai Lodge sits along the longest remaining stretch of historic Route 66 and offers an ideal base for exploring the raw Grand Canyon landscape
Grand Canyon Skywalk allows visitors to walk 4,000 feet above the floor of the Grand Canyon on a glass walkway. This horseshoe-shaped glass bridge extends 70 feet over the rim of the canyon, providing unparalleled views of one of the world’s Seven Natural Wonders.
Opened in 2007, Skywalk is strong enough to bear the weight of 70 jumbo passenger jets and withstand 100 mph winds.
There are multiple dining options at Skywalk. Sa' Nyu Wa, a newly opened 4-star restaurant, offers a unique fusion of Southwest and Asian cuisine with traditional Hualapai tribal dishes. The restaurant’s floor-to-ceiling windows provide dramatic views of the West Rim.
CULTURAL EXPERIENCES ~ THE HUALAPAI BIRD SINGERS
