It’s time to push your limits by scaling the tallest building in Hudson Yards! As you climb up a 45-degree angled staircase, look out at the vast city beneath you. From the Empire State Building to the East River, there are nooks and crooks of the city that you can see.
Before ascending, you’ll be strapped into a climb suit to keep you safe from the elements but more importantly, to help hook you up to the buckles and safety harnesses. Then, you’ll head out to climb the outside of the building with a professional Climb guide. This is also the highest open-air building ascent in the world!
At the top, let go and lean out into the air with nothing but the city to catch you! As you peer over the edge, get a full view of New York City. A skyscraper standing tall at over 1,200 feet is a tall climb and not for the faint of heart. Can you take on the challenge of being higher than the rest of the city?
You’ll scale the crown of 30 Hudson Yards, climbing a 45-degree angled staircase, and then lean out over the edge, being higher than anyone else in New York City.
Suite Up Meet your Climb Gide. Store your belongings. Put on your Climbsuite. It’s time to leave the everyday behind and climb out of your comfort zone. Way out.
Strap In Head to base camp, harness up, and buckle tight. Meet The Rail – your new best friend that will keep you firmly attached to the building from here on out. Get your final instructions and get ready to climb.
Lean Out Nothing can prepare you for the feeling of being the highest person in New York City. You climb with a group, but you lean out alone. With your adrenaline pumping and heart racing, you peer over the edge with the city below.
The Reward You’ll be awarded with a medal for your achievement!
