What you can expect
Take advantage of the seemingly endless number of sunny days the Gold Coast is renowned for with this SkyPoint day climb - the region's ultimate sightseeing experience. The Q1 Climb is a unique, thrilling and scenic, as participants follow a staircase and path above the glass crown that frames the top of this architectural marvel.
Skypoint Climb takes you to a height of 270 metres above sea level and provides climbers with unparalleled views of the stunning Gold Coast region. Connected to an internal handrail for safety, climbers are led to the peak of the tower by an experienced Climb Leader. Climbing the stairs to the massive spire, once atop if you're daring, you can walk along the edge of the building to experience the thrill of a 270 metre drop by just looking down.
To accompany the beautiful setting, your Climb Leader will take the time to point out some of the region's landmarks while also telling some of the region's best kept secrets. You'll never want to climb down from this incredible view, however, when the time does come to descend you'll feel as though you've just experienced a whole new world as the views from the lush Gold Coast Hinterland to the city's golden beaches and the rising skyline is something to revel in.

Roof climb of the tallest building in Australia! Give it a go !
Staff were great did a fantastic job. An amazing view from the top and making sure we were all safe and secure in our harness safety is priority number one before leaving on our mission looking over the side. The view from the top is even better leaning over gets the blood flowing lol

AMAZING, a must do!! I am scared of heights so was really unsure but it is just spectacular up there and so worth it.
Honestly if you’re contemplating it - just do it! Such amazing views! The initial climb is quite steep but you are going slow! Hanging over the edge, for me was terrifying but you have to do it for the full experience. Tash was fantastic. Will be going again next time for sure!

We climbed the tallest building on the entire Gold Coast. It was very exciting to get up to such a height and walk around.
All my expectations were confirmed. I have had such a unique experience. Anyone who is into adrenaline should definitely try it. Not only the incredible height but also the view over the edge of the observation deck was incredible. Despite all that, you feel super safe and well equipped. All my worries were put to rest. All valuables are super secured. I felt well accompanied by the experienced leaders, who were also super super sweet by the way. And of course the price speaks for itself. You can't really go wrong.
