Description
Experience new heights and new views with Summit at Alexandra Palace. Climb the UK’s highest roof walk and enjoy amazing vistas across London of up to 25 miles away.
With a professional and expert English-speaking guide, you will not only be in safe hands but also learn about the heritage of the building and its importance in London. Connect with over 150 years of history and enjoy the city from a brand-new perspective on this exclusive Alexandra Palace rooftop climb.
After completing a short safety briefing, you will be fitted with a full-body harness. Once securely attached, you will follow a specially designed route up onto the roof. Enjoy stories about Alexandra Palace’s past from your guide as you climb. From the original Rose Window and wartime damage to the building’s role in broadcasting, concerts and fireworks, you will not only leave the experience with amazing memories but plenty of new knowledge too!
You will reach the roof apex and the Angel of Plenty statue, where the views open to a 350-degree panorama of London. On a clear day, you can see St Paul’s Cathedral, Canary Wharf, The Shard, the London Eye, Premier League football stadiums, and so much more. Pause, soak it in and enjoy this once-in-a-lifetime experience.
You will have the choice of daytime Standard Climbs with wide-open views, Sunset Climbs timed for the golden hour, or London Lights evening climbs when the skyline glows after dark.
