my concern is that they only turn on the lights after dark, hence not good for sunset photography More

The bridge climb is well worth doing, we did the dusk walk which gives amazing views of the sun setting over Sydney when you're at the top. The walk is not physically too difficult, just remember it takes a few hours (although a lot of time is spent waiting/admiring the view) and there are some steep steps at some points. More

Looking across from Sydney Harbour, the bridge looks just splendid. I would consider this to be a masculine design based on the materials used & clean line structure. See the national flags & tankships on top! Wow. What an unusual installation. More

Walking the bridge appears to be a lot easier than climbing it. We got a birds eye view of the Opera House and surrounding areas. The end of the bridge is a perfect place to have lunch. There are several places to pick up a take away and eat at a picnic table nearby. The one way walk should only... More

Love the Harbour Bridge, especially when viewing it from the Botanic Gardens with the Opera House also in the background. It's a great way to watch the sun come up while on a morning run. The bridge also makes a great place to run along (nice couple of kms from Milsons Point to the city) but be aware you entre... More

The Bridge Climb is a bit "pricey" but is well worth it. The commentary by our Climb Leader (Melissa) was informative and entertaining. We were lucky and had a beautiful clear Autumn day with very little wind and once we got to the top the view of Sydney was spectacular (although the day was clear we could only just see... More
