When considering whether this activity will be right for your child, we would like you to consider the following:

• Safety is, and always will be, our number one priority for all of our Climbers.
• We will equip kids of this age in smaller BridgeSuits, belts, mittens, or fleeces based on the day’s weather conditions.
• Climbing the Bridge is an all-age experience. The stories our Climb Leaders share during the experience is appropriate for a broad age range.
• Children will be required to climb with and next to their parent/guardian.
• To climb the Bridge, children must be 8 years old and 120cm tall to participate.
• Parents/guardians must remain with their children throughout the Climb experience, and must assist BridgeClimb staff by managing their equipment preparation and behaviour.

No. Anyone who can sustain moderate physical exertion up to 3½ hours over 1.75km should find the BridgeClimb. The oldest climber, Mrs Chris Muller, reached the summit at 100 years old.

If you’re 75 years of age, or over, you can climb with a Certificate of Fitness signed by your GP. Please, download this form from our website and bring it with you on the day.

In most cases, yes. We have helped thousands of people challenge their fear of heights by climbing to the top of the Bridge.

Acrophobia is a common fear. In fact many of our 3.2 million Climbers came to us with nerves, not yet certain if they could muster the courage to set foot on the iconic steel arches.

We’re here to support you before during and after your BridgeClimb. We will answer questions, demonstrate just how safe BridgeClimb is, keep your mind engaged and your eyes on the prize.

We love and share in the pride in our Climbers who Face their Fear. Is your pulse racing at the thought? Don’t underestimate yourself. With support from us and from loved ones you’d be surprise what you can do!

If you are less than 24 weeks pregnant, you can participate with a signed Certificate of Fitness Form from your GP. We'll provide you with the form if you if you leave a request for the form in the comment box on the booking form. If you are over 24 weeks pregnant you cannot climb.

Yes. We encourage climbers who wear hearing aids to leave them safely in their lockers to prevent damage or loss while they are on the Bridge. We have a variety of headsets available and many of our hearing impaired climbers have agreed that these allowed them to enjoy the commentary delivered by their Climb Leader.

We also offer Auslan Climbs. On an Auslan Climb you’ll be accompanied by an Australian Sign Language interpreter who will interpret the commentary about Sydney and its world famous Bridge. These Climbs occur twice a month.

We do our best to help everyone climb. To participate you need to have a general level of health and fitness, and the ability to climb independently.

The conditions vary based on the day’s weather. You can expect to possibly:

• climb ladders and walk on catwalks
• participate in prolonged stair climbing
• walk along uneven surfaces and via narrow passageways
• be exposed to all weather conditions

No, unfortunately not. Climbers cannot take loose objects, including cameras, phones or GoPros, on the Bridge. This is to safeguard against anything falling from the Bridge. We provide secure lockers for you to keep your camera or any loose objects in during your Climb. Our photographically-trained Climb Leaders will capture photos of you during your Climb. 

Essential medication, like inhalers or diabetic medication, can be taken on the Climb. Please speak to staff on the day.

It is approximately 2 hours 40 minutes.

We equip you in all the outdoor gear you’ll need for your Climb based on the day’s weather conditions and our health & safety essentials. Please wear comfortable clothing on the day of your Climb in case you need to wear it under your suit for warmth. Please wear comfortable, enclosed rubber-soled shoes such as running, sport or hiking shoes. PVC and leather-soled shoes are not ideal.

Yes. The key to a smooth proposal at the summit is to notify us at the time of your booking. We are experienced at discretely helping many couples become engaged at the top thanks to a special ring safety attachment.
