1. EdgeWalk in Toronto, Canada

Go to the brink with EdgeWalk at Toronto’s CN Tower. This mind-blowing quest challenges visitors to walk along a tiny 1.5-metre wide ledge – atop the tower’s main pod - while 356-metres in the air. EdgeWalk is a one-of-a-kind experience and a Guinness World Record holder – it’s the world’s highest full circle hands-free walk. You’ll gasp at the heart-stopping views of Lake Ontario, and Toronto’s skyscrapers. Itching to test your nerve? EdgeWalk is open from May-October.
