The Express Climb is a NEW climbing adventure that was launched in October 2009 and is the fastest way to the top of the Sydney Harbour Bridge.
On this new Climb, your time is our priority, so we have provided more BridgeClimb team members to assist with a quicker Climb preparation, allowing you to discover the wonders of the Bridge in just 2 hours and 15 minutes.
In a smaller group of up to 12 Climbers, you will climb through the inner arch of the Sydney Harbour Bridge crossing over catwalks and stairs, and make your way to thrilling views that await you at the summit of the Bridge.
The Express Climb is the ultimate experience, in the best possible time for you.
Our professional Climb Leaders will take pictures of you on the Climb and at the end you will receive a commemorative Climber Certificate, Climber Cap and a complimentary group photograph, with all Climbers in the group receiving an identical photo. For safety reasons Climbers cannot take up personal items onto the Bridge (including cameras)

Overview
BridgeClimb gives people the unforgettable experience of standing at the summit of one of the world's greatest icons – the Sydney Harbour Bridge.
The inspiration behind this incredible experience is businessman Paul Cave. After successfully organizing a group climb as part of the Young Presidents Organisation World Congress in 1989, Paul decided that the climb was one of the most incredible things to do in Sydney, and more people deserved to experience it. He took on the huge challenge of bringing BridgeClimb to the public.
Nine years later, on 1 October 1998, BridgeClimb launched the first public Climbs to the world. It soon became the number one thing to do in Sydney. At a press conference attended by 300 supporters, the media, Bridge workers and descendents of chief engineer JJC Bradfield, NSW Roads Minister Carl Scully declared BridgeClimb open. Media coverage was widespread. The city gave us a hearty welcome and this warm embrace has continued.
