The Ultimate View
Your View at the Forth Bridge is back for a 7th year!
Barnardo’s is delighted to confirm that Your View at the Forth Bridge is back for an incredible 7th year! Once again members of the public have the opportunity to stand atop the iconic World Heritage Forth Bridge and enjoy uninterrupted 360-degree panoramic views of the Edinburgh and Fife coastline as they have never seen it before – all from a viewing platform 361 feet in the air.
In addition to the Classic, Sunrise & Sunset tickets, they are also offering the Ultimate Experience where there is a chance to visit the track level of the bridge before taking a bridge walk out under the rail track towards the Forth
The event will take place from 19th – 21st September 2025. Tickets to this exclusive event go on sale at 10am on Monday 16th June.
Your View would not be possible without the generosity of Network Rail and Balfour Beatty. To date the event has raised over £375,000 to support Barnardo’s work in Scotland.
Abseil the Bridge
Challenge yourself to a unique and memorable experience while raising funds for Chest Heart & Stroke Scotland.
On 28 September 2025, you'll have the opportunity to climb steps up to the Forth Bridge and then abseil a 165ft drop, landing on a soft sandy beach in the heart of South Queensferry.
