More than a climb
We are proud to have facilitated over 4 million local and international visitors to climb the iconic Bridge. From its fascinating underbelly to its summit, 134m above the Harbour, the Bridge is the pride of Sydney. From dawn until dusk, the views towards and from the top are always different. Climbs are available at dawn (limited departures), throughout the day, twilight or night. Don’t miss out on this unforgettable, and uniquely “Sydney” experience.
The Stories
Discover untold stories
Since 1998 BridgeClimb has established itself as an integral part of the Sydney scene. We love the Bridge and have celebrated its key milestones with Bridge workers, descendants of chief engineer JJC Bradfield, and Sydneysiders alike. BridgeClimb is an immersive cultural and historical experience, uncovering Sydney as you never knew it existed.
The View
See Sydney differently
It’s true – the view from the top of the Sydney Harbour Bridge is second to none. Positioned across Sydney’s breathtaking natural Harbour, the Sydney Harbour Bridge has become one of the most photographed features of our beautiful City. Once at its summit, 134m above sea level, you’ll enjoy uninterrupted panorama views of the City and its surrounds.
Post-Climb
Make a day of it
Once you’ve descended the arches, it doesn’t stop there. You’ll receive a certificate of achievement and group photo memory, alongside the chance to review and purchase additional images and video captured of your individual experience. Before leaving, you can also visit the cinema and exhibition area, plus collect your free-entry pass to the Pylon Lookout Museum.
