Dawn Climb

ABOUT

Wake up above Brisbane

Watch the first light spill across Brisbane as the city slowly comes to life below you. Walk, talk and share the moment with the people beside you while your passionate Climb Leader brings the city to life through stories, laughter and conversation.

Put the phone away. Breathe in the morning air. Take in the incredible views. From the summit of the Story Bridge, sunrise is more than something you see and it’s something you experience together.

A must-do Brisbane adventure and a memory that stays with you long after you climb down.

Don’t let the view live only in your memory!

Lock in your climb memories with a $40 Photo Pack when you book online and save $10 off the on-the-day price.

Plans change. Your climb can too!

Add a Flexi Ticket for $35 per person and reschedule your entire booking up to 1 hour before your scheduled Climb.

No reason needed. No stress. Just more flexibility.

Available on eligible direct bookings only. Flexi can be used once. T&Cs apply.

EXPERIENCE

Brisbane’s Ultimate Sunrise Experience

Your 90-minute Dawn Climb begins before the city wakes. Meet your Climb Leader, gear up and step onto the Story Bridge as the first light begins to appear over Brisbane.

As you climb higher, leave the screens and distractions behind. Breathe in the fresh morning air, take in the changing colours across the river and skyline, and enjoy the simple pleasure of walking, talking and sharing an extraordinary moment with the people around you.

Along the way, your Climb Leader brings Brisbane to life through stories, local knowledge and conversation. At the summit, take a moment to stop and simply enjoy where you are; high above the Brisbane River as a new day unfolds around you.

Then make your way back to base with a sense of achievement, connection and a pretty incredible start to your day.

90 minutes. One unforgettable sunrise. A whole new way to experience Brisbane.
