Story Bridge Brisbane Tourist Attraction

Brisbane’s impressive Story Bridge opened for operation on July 6, 1940.

It is the largest steel bridge designed, fabricated and constructed in Australia by Australians, and it continues to be a remarkable feat of engineering. This iconic bridge is a testament to engineering excellence and includes the Story within its structure.

The Adventure Climb is one of only three bridge climbs in the world, giving visitors a chance to embrace climbing the Story Bridge experience from stunning heights.

Climbing over the steel structure gives you an incredible bird’s eye view over Brisbane, Kangaroo Point and of the distant mountain ranges and up the Brisbane River, all while appreciating its grandeur. Plus, the climb offers more insight into the bridge and its significance.

Beneath the bridge on the CBD side is Howard Smith Wharves, a historic shipyard-turned-precinct. Here, this attraction creates a picturesque backdrop, iconic alongside the Story Bridge, for this revived area.

The shipyard warehouses are now craft beer venue, conference spaces, cafes, and restaurants along with open parkland, offering views that include this iconic attraction as a backdrop.

A way to see Brisbane’s attractions is to book a tour through a tour operator, and enjoy the lookout.
