TL;DR:<\/strong> Vizag’s Kailasagiri skywalk (55m, opened 1 December 2025) is now India’s longest cantilever glass bridge, overtaking Kerala’s Vagamon bridge (40m, 2023). Kanyakumari’s 77m sea-crossing bridge (\u20b937 crore, opened December 2024) remains the country’s only glass bridge over open water. Five more projects \u2014 in Chitrakoot, Rajgir, Ranchi, Dehradun-Mussoorie and Varanasi \u2014 round out 2026’s list, though not all of them are open yet.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n

Walking on transparent glass hundreds of feet above the ground was once the kind of experience people associated with China or the Swiss Alps. That idea is changing fast. India now has a growing list of glass bridges, suspended skywalks, and aerial ropeways drawing visitors from across the country. In 2026, that list has grown further, with new structures at waterfall viewpoints, coastal hills, and pilgrimage towns \u2014 though, as this piece found, not every one of them is actually open yet. We’ve checked each claim against official and news sources so you don’t plan a trip around a bridge that’s still on paper. If you’re mapping out a longer trip around any of these,\u00a0StayVista<\/a>\u00a0has villas and homestays near a few of them.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
