It gives a rare glimpse of the Sydney cityscape, which truly will be unforgettable. Bridge Climb started in 1998 and attracts tourists and locals and is about 3-½ hour guided journey to climb the monument. It takes you along the outer arch of the Bridge on catwalks and ladders all the way to the summit, 134 metres above Sydney Harbour. There are day, twilight and night climbs and a group of twelve will leave for a climb every ten minutes. The safety precautions taken include a blood alcohol reading and a Climb Simulator, which shows Climbers the climbing conditions that, might be experienced on the Bridge.
The steady incline to the summit leaves you free to focus your attention on your Sydney experience, with opportunities to witness 360 degree views of Sydney, including east to the Sydney Opera House, west to the Blue Mountains and the Harbour city surrounds. When you reach the top you will have a sense of achievement that you will remember forever- you've conquered an Australian icon recognised the world over!  By Shabzz Shah
