Climb the Matagarup Bridge in Australia and enjoy an exhilarating experience. You'll start your adventure with a brief safety induction. You'll soon be ready with your full-body harness, helmet, and a bridge latch device with a tether. Here your thrilling experience will begin. Your guide will clip your gear onto the bridge, and you'll start the 45-degree climb. See the hustle-bustle of the city from a unique perspective as you mount the 314 steps. Midway, you'll stop and catch a breath from the exercise. Your guide will regale stories about the famous Swan River and all its urban legends.

The second part of your climb will take you to the summit of the Matagarup Bridge. You'll reach the SkyView deck at the top, a glass-bottom platform located 72 meters above the Swan river, giving you an expansive view of the city and the nature surrounding it. Get 15 minutes to take in the beauty of the view and listen to interesting stories about the city. Then, you'll descend the western arch of the bridge. When you return the safety gear, make sure to collect your free photos of this exciting experience!
