Why I Love Toronto Reason #363

Edge Walk

I said the CN Tower would make one last appearance on this list, being the landmark it is. Now The Edge Walk is literally you standing on the edge of the North America’s tallest structure. Now I have not been on the edge walk yet, but let me tell you I have prepping for next year! I have a minor fear of heights and can only do high things if I am enclosed and such, but on a tether – oh god no I’d need more. Anyways I have been prepping by going on high rollercoasters that have just lap bars and I am confident that I will be able to edge walk next year!

Anyways this experience takes place on the roof of the CN Tower’s restaurant which is 1,168 feet above the ground making it the world highest full circle hands free walk.  It takes about a half hour (but the whole experience in 1.5) to walk 150 metres around the 1.5 metre ledge, but as you do walk around you have to lean forward and backwards. There is no denying that this is the ultimate view of the city and the scariest.

The event is $175 dollars, but you get a video and a photo so I think that it is worth it I mean it is cheaper than most sky diving ventures. This is a unique experience and it looks like it would be absolutely breathtaking – literally. I can’t wait to do it next year, I will keep preparing by practising my lean forward and backward on my veranda edge (not high but I think I also might also have a fear of falling) and then next year I will do it I will walk around the edge of the city I <3.

That is Why I Love Toronto.
