DOWNTOWN ADVENTURE
The adventure begins at Climb base camp, directly under the Story Bridge itself. After a quick pre-climb brief, you’ll ascend a spiral staircase leading to the start of the suspended walkway directly beneath the Bradfield Highway (Australia’s shortest highway). From here you’ll connect to the climb line for the entire climb and begin the journey along the suspended walkway to the base of the Bridge’s pylon, learning about the colourful history of the Story Bridge and Brisbane.

By now you should have warmed up – because it’s climb time! Start the climb up through the inner Eastern bridge arm, climbing level with one of Brisbane’s busiest commute points and then ascend straight up the cantilever arm stretching over the Brisbane River and reaching up into the sky. Before you know it you’re celebrating with your climb group on the summit platform, where you’ll get your bearings and some fun facts about the amazing 360 degree panorama before you. Venture further along and you’ll explore the bridge from a different angle, travelling approximately half way across the river below before returning to the top platform for a final climb group photo before your descent back to Climb base camp.

Every Climb to the top includes a Climb group photograph, with additional individual photographs available for purchase.
