Harbor bridge

What can you do for valentines day in Sydney? We thought, why not climb the famous harbor bridge and enjoy the spectacular views of the city as well as the world's most famous opera house. We did not go as far as the couple on the morning tour that got married at the top of the bridge but it still did feel very special to share these spectacular views together.

The Sydney bridge climbs have been organized since 1998. Paul Cave, the founder of the bridge climb company, came up with the idea already in 1989. It took him 9 years to convince the politicians of Sydney to allow him to go on with his idea.

We started the tour on a ladder leading us up between the scaffolds with cars racing by beneath us. Once on the actual arch we could start enjoying the view while making our way up to the summit of the bridge at 134 meters above the water.

It was an amazing experience that we would highly recommend but would probably never find the money to do it again.
