The Grand Canyon Skywalk This trip comes with a couple of caveats.

Visiting the Skywalk at Grand Canyon West

Among our many site seeing adventures, the Grand Canyon Skywalk has been on our list since we first heard about the project in 2004. We visited the Skywalk in July of 2007 and found the area to be a work in progress.

True the Skywalk itself is complete, however there are many other areas nearby that are still under construction. One of the goals of the Hualapi tribe is to create a resort on the grounds of the Skywalk. There are already recently constructed traditional dwellings (pictured below) that give relevant historical and cultural information.

Here is a picture of the Indian Village Near the Skywalk, the various living spaces gives you a good idea of what Indian Life was like many years ago.

The Hualapi Wikiup, a sweat lodge used as a place of Healing

A Hopi Structure, used for work, ceremonies, storage and shelter.

This area is located within walking distance of the Grand Canyon Skywalk, be sure and bring a bottle of water and some sunscreen if your traveling in the summer, it was about 104 degrees when we visited in July of 2007..
