Our group leader, Olivier was great. She made everyone feel welcome and supported. The physical climb was fairly short and not difficult but it was a little scary for me. The views were amazing from the top and it was exciting to do the climb. I would recommend the climb to those who are adventurous.

    • Set off on the trek, ascending a spiral staircase, navigating a sky-high walkway, and reaching the bridge's summit.

    • Before you start, get the lowdown on the safety rules and techniques from your friendly guide at the base camp.

    • Fancy seeing the bridge from a new angle? There's a no-cost ferry from Kangaroo Point to Howard Smith Wharves, taking you right under the big bridge you just crossed.

    • Opt for a day, dawn, twilight, or night climb to see the city's stunning views in the changing lights.

    Climbing the Story Bridge with my son and seeing Brisbane City at night
  • Brisbane's iconic bridge

    There's nothing like seeing Brisbane from the top of its famous Story Bridge. The views are incredible, from the Glass House Mountains to Moreton Bay and the Scenic Rim. Whether it's the crack of dawn or the depths of night, it's a sight to behold. And it's fun to walk under the bright LED lights of the bridge that paint the night with ever-changing hues.

    The climb

    It all starts at the base camp, where your guide will brief you and your fellow explorers. Climb up a spiral staircase that leads to the walkway above the road. From there, the guide leads to the south end of the bridge, where the climb goes up the steep arm of the bridge until the top. Once you reach the summit, prepare to be blown away by breathtaking 360-degree views of Brisbane and its twinkling surroundings. And just when you think it can't get any better, venture halfway across the river before returning to the top platform for a group snapshot. Individual photos are also available for purchase, so don't forget to smile!
