Sydney Harbour Bridge Climb – The Discovery Climb - Overview

Climbing Sydney Harbour Bridge is one of the most popular things to do in Australia. For a thrilling experience and an in-depth tour of the iconic Bridge, choose the ‘Discovery Climb’. This climb travels through the inner arch of the Bridge, to see details you won’t see on other tours, before you reach the summit at a dizzy height of 134 metres.

Choose the Dawn Climb to enjoy the early morning tranquility, or the Day Climb to observe the bustle of the city. Experience the special magic of sunset and dusk on the Twilight Climb or admire Sydney glittering after dark on the Night Climb.

Sydney Harbour Bridge Climb – The Discovery Climb - Itinerary




When you arrive at 5 Cumberland St, The Rocks you will be issued with your all-in-one BridgeSuit, safety harness and any other protective gear necessary for the prevailing weather conditions. You will even get a lanyard for your glasses and a scrunchie for your hair!

The ‘Discovery Climb’ is the most in-depth Sydney Harbour Bridge Climb on offer. The 3 ½ hour experience takes you along the inner arch of the Bridge. In small groups of around 12 climbers, you will be able to touch the raw steel and rivets and experience this amazing iconic structure up close. You will wind above the Harbour on catwalks, scale the steel heart of this structural masterpiece and emerge to a unique summit experience via a mammoth staircase between the two arches of the Bridge.

Along the way, your professional climb leader will share the Bridge's rich history, leaving you in awe of this incredible feat of engineering. The summit is 134 meters above the water, and you will be rewarded with amazing panoramic views whichever time of day you have chosen.



If you are wondering about the timing of your Discovery Climb, here’s what you could expect at the different times of day.

Dawn Climb: For early adventurers, dawn climbs have a tranquil quality. Watch from above as the lights fade and the city comes to life. The Harbour glistens in a pearly light, and you reach the summit just as day emerges from the night.

Day Climb: Climbing during the day with the city buzzing around you has an energetic, vibrant feel. Standing on top of the Bridge, you’ll take in the sights of the Sydney foreshore and the world-famous Sydney Opera House. On a clear day you will see views stretching from the Pacific Ocean to the Blue Mountains.

Twilight Climb: The colors of twilight add romance to your journey as you watch the magical lights of Sydney flicker around you. The city’s dusk sky is breathtaking alongside the Bridge’s powerful structure.

Night Climb: There’s a quiet, magical quality to the city at night and the Bridge has a mysterious feel as you ascend to the summit guided by the light of the headlamp provided. You're wrapped in a blanket of darkness, with just the Bridge lights illuminating the structure against huge shadows. Then, at the top, Sydney blazes before you in an electric-light show.

At the end of the Climb, you will receive a commemorative Climber Certificate and a complimentary group photograph, with all climbers in the group receiving an identical photo.

The tour ends back at the starting point.
