What is the Sydney Harbour BridgeClimb?
BridgeClimb is a guided climb to the top of the Sydney Harbour Bridge, 134 metres above the harbor. Since 1998, millions of people have made the climb, enjoying views of the Opera House and the city.
Climbers wear special grey and blue suits and are attached to a safety line throughout the climb. Before starting, they pass a breath test and are given safety briefings.
Several climb options are available, including the full summit climb along the upper arch and shorter express routes. Climbs run during the day, at twilight and at night.
Famous climbers
BridgeClimb has attracted celebrities, sports stars and royalty. Many people have proposed to their partners at the top of the bridge.
The climb takes around three hours, including preparation. Climbers cannot carry phones or cameras, but guides take photographs at the summit.
The Sydney Harbour Bridge opened in 1932 and is the world's largest steel arch bridge by width. Walking across the bridge on the pedestrian path is free, offering another way to enjoy the views.
Children aged eight and over can join some climbs if they meet height requirements and are accompanied by an adult.
