Local tips
- If you are unsure about the distance, pick an e-bike: you enjoy the ride, not the climb.
- The ferry from Circular Quay to Manly takes about 30 minutes and is the cheapest harbour cruise in town.
- BridgeClimb runs from dawn to night; twilight climbs sell out first, so book a few weeks ahead in summer.
