Skywalk Experience

Experience Code: SKW421

Description


Double the height of the Harbour Bridge, Sydney Skywalk is an exhilarating 40 minute outdoor experience on top of Sydney Tower, a breath taking 260 metres above the harbour city. Dare to step out over the edge and face Sydney like never before, feel the high-altitude breeze and touch the clouds!

Skywalk will literally send you over the edge! Suspended from Sydney Tower's limits, you will get sensational 360-degree views of Sydney from 260m above street level!

Your visit will start with a safety briefing. You are then fitted with protective Skysuits and prepared for the adventure out!

Harnessed to safety rails by sliding cables, you will be escorted along purpose-built steel walkways and platforms by Skyguides, pointing out the city's geographical, historical and cultural landmarks along the way.

Now here’s for some interesting facts:

  • Sydney Tower is the 25th tallest freestanding structure in the world and the second tallest in the Southern Hemisphere
  • It boasts the highest public observation deck south of the equator, sitting 250m above land
  • Sydney Tower more than double the height of the Harbour Bridge (134m)
  • Sydney Tower is the first place in Sydney to greet the dawn each day and the last place to see the sunset
  • Sydney Tower is the same height as the Eiffel Tower
  • Visitors to the observation deck can see 55km out to sea (weather dependant) compared to someone at Bondi Beach who can see just 5km to the horizon. This means a Tower observer can see a ship approaching Sydney two hours before the person at the beach
  • Sydney Tower still sets the maximum height limit for Sydney buildings today – 279m

During your Skywalk experience you are guaranteed to have an amazing time and get spectacular views of a city that was voted the most beautiful in the world!

Also included is entry to Sydney Tower Observation Deck and Oztrek, a simulated ride which takes you on a virtual tour around Australia. 180-degree screens will see you travelling from tropical Queensland to the outback and beyond!
