The Sydney Harbour Bridge, affectionately known by locals as the "Coathanger," is one of the most iconic landmarks in Australia and a must-visit for any traveler venturing to Sydney, New South Wales. Spanning across the sparkling waters of Sydney Harbour, this architectural marvel offers an adventure like no other: the Sydney Bridge Climb. Here are some interesting facts about this exhilarating experience:

When it comes to climbing the Sydney Harbour Bridge, you can choose from several different experiences, and no matter which climb you choose, you will be rewarded with unforgettable views and a sense of accomplishment. The experience begins with a safety briefing and fitting of your climbing gear. Climbers are then connected to a static line system that ensures safety throughout the climb. As you ascend the arches of the bridge, your guide will share stories about the bridge's construction and significance to Sydney. At the summit, you’ll have plenty of time to soak in the panoramic views and be able to purchase memorable photos. NOTE, that no cameras or smartphones are allowed on your person as you climb the Sydney Bridge. Your guide will take many pictures of you individually or of your group if you are climbing with others, and these are available for purchase after the climb.

Personally, I have an innate fear of heights, and I was so proud of myself for doing this climb as you may see from my photo. YES, that is ME! There were moments of fear, but if you alert your Guide to your fears, they work with you. I felt extremely safe on this climb, and I will do it again. I was so proud to be able to do this despite my fear of heights.
