Coiling Dragon Cliff skywalk, Zhangjiajie, China

In the northwest of China's Hunan province, visitors can talk a leisurely stroll along the walkway attached to Tianmen Mountain — 4,700 feet above the ground.

The glass-bottomed walkway is more than 300 feet long and only about five feet wide, providing an experience that's sure to leave you clutching the rockface for support.



Titlis Cliff Walk, Engelberg, Switzerland

Noteworthy for its distinction as Europe's highest suspension bridge, the attraction sits more than 9,000 feet above sea level. 

There might not be any glass bottoms, but that's not exactly comforting when the entirety of the Swiss Alps rests beneath you.



Step Into the Void, French Alps

Step Into the Void lets people venture onto a reinforced glass platform to immerse themselves in the surrounding mountain range. Looking down is pretty much unavoidable, but if you've traveled all that way, why bother?
