SkyWalk Auckland
Victoria Street West, Auckland CBD
About
The SkyWalk takes you outside, onto a 1.2 metre wide platform that runs right around the Sky Tower's pergola at 192 metres, with no handrail. You're harnessed to an overhead rail the whole way, and guides walk it with you. The absence of a rail is the point, and it's what separates it from a viewing deck. Most people spend the first lap gripping the harness and the second looking at the view, which on a clear day reaches the Waitākere Ranges one way and the Hauraki Gulf the other. It takes roughly an hour including the briefing and kitting up. There are minimum age and weight requirements. High winds can stop it, so it's worth having a backup plan if the forecast looks rough. No cameras or loose items are allowed out on the platform.
