Choosing a Guided Adventure Day

Height without leaving the inner city usually means the Story Bridge. Story Bridge Adventure Climb starts at Howard Smith Wharves, on the riverbank between the CBD and Fortitude Valley.

Planning a group climb from the inner city, in short:

  • Story Bridge Adventure Climb is a guided walk to the summit in harnesses, not a rope abseil.
  • The top is 80 metres above the river, with views over the skyline and out to Moreton Bay.
  • Private sessions are for 10 or more, and each climbing party is capped at 14 people.
  • Pick from dawn, day, twilight or night slots, all of which run every day of the year.
  • Wheelchair users have an accessible version of the climb designed for them.

Because the base is at Howard Smith Wharves, a climb pairs easily with a meal on the river once everyone is back on the ground.

Choosing a climb time for a Valley or CBD group

  • Dawn climbs suit a team that wants the morning free for work afterwards.
  • Twilight and night slots work for birthdays and hens nights that roll into dinner.
  • Weather does not cancel a climb, so a booked date holds.
  • Groups larger than 14 head up in waves set 15 minutes apart.

Add-ons from the Story Bridge team

  • A toast at the summit with a Felons lager or Veuve Clicquot can be included.
  • Climb leaders take group photos from the top.
  • Lean Out and Walk the Plank are optional challenges for teams who want a test of nerve.
  • The team can help connect a group with restaurants at the wharves, such as Felons Brewing Co. for pizza.
