Royal Gorge Bridge & Park - the world famous Royal Gorge drops over one
thousand feet from the rim of the gorge to the Arkansas River far below. The world's
highest suspension bridge crosses the canyon, and you can actually drive across!
The views are spectacular, and some people dare to ride the Royal Rush Sky Coaster which swings you out over the gorge where you are 1200 feet above the Arkansas River. Recently named the scariest Skycoaster of them all.
