<p>A shiny new suspension bridge, cantilevered viewing platform and cliff-top hiking trail through the only inland temperate rainforest is now open as part of the signature summer attraction Skywalk.</p>

<p>(By the way, I had to look up cantilevered. It means a structure that projects horizontally into space, firmly supported on one end, leaving the other hanging freely. An exciting, scientific and architectural feat.)</p>

<p><img alt="&lt;who&gt;Photo credits: Revelstoke Mountain Resort&lt;/who&gt; Revelstoke Mountain Resort's new Skywalk attraction includes a 75-metre suspension bridge." class="img-responsive" src="/files/files/images/Skywalk.jpg" style="margin: 5px;" /></p>

<p>To get to this elevated experience, ride the Revelation Gondola to its peak on the mid-west flank of Mount Mackenzie at 5,400 feet or 1,650 metres above sea level.</p>

<p>(By the way, 5,280 feet is a mile or 1.6 kilometres.)</p>

<p><img alt="&lt;/who&gt;To get to Skywalk, take the Revelation Gondola to the top." class="img-responsive" src="/files/files/images/Revelation%20Gondola.JPG" style="margin: 5px;" /></p>

<p>A trail, 300 metres to the northwest, takes you to the 75.5-metre-long suspension bridge anchored to the mountainside linking two rocky points.</p>

<p>The view down to Mt. Begbie, the Columbia Valley and the City of Revelstoke is breathtaking.</p>

<p>Hike up a little higher and step out on the 60-square-metre cantilevered view platform for another awe-inspiring look out with the suspension bridge in the foreground and the aforementioned mountain, valley and city in the distance.</p>

<p>Also at the top is the Mackenzie Outpost restaurant, a picnic area and more hiking trails with names like Splitrock Falls and Kill the Banker.</p>

<p>While the official grand opening for Skywalk is Friday at 2 pm, it fully opened early this week.</p>

<p>Tickets to Skywalk are $50 <a href="https://www.revelstokemountainresort.com/summer/summer-activities/revelstoke-skywalk/?utm_content=&amp;gad_source=1&amp;gad_campaignid=22541631015&amp;gbraid=0AAAAADjomNYqiYPZVPjwf9AxFS9_n-ZgL&amp;gclid=CjwKCAjwxb7RBhA5EiwAQ-AAdAi-SWLnWcjs7icd8DEhKL0GswalTs-EXYms8wN9yhRqGaJ79hN3TxoCpo8QAvD_BwE">here</a>.</p>

<p>In the winter, Revelstoke Mountain Resort is legendary for skiers and snowboarders with the most vertical in North America at 5,620 feet of lift-accessed terrain and 3,121 acres of all line skiing, four high-alpine bowls, 75 runs over glades and groomed slopes.</p>

<p>The resort also has Selkirk Tangiers Heli Skiing.</p>

<p>For the summer it has the new Skywalk supension bridge and viewing platform via the Revelation Gondola, hiking trails, the Pipe Mountain Coaster and lift-accessed and enduro-style mountain bike trails.</p>
