Overview
The Story Bridge Adventure Climb is a guided ascent to the summit of Brisbane's famous cantilever bridge, offering unobstructed 360-degree views of the city, Moreton Bay, and the hinterland ranges. Climbers follow the outer steel structure 80 metres above the Brisbane River.

The climb experience launched in 2005, making the Story Bridge one of only three bridges in the world offering a public climb, alongside Sydney Harbour Bridge and Auckland Harbour Bridge.
