Tower Climbs
Tower on the Hour
'Tower on the hour' starts on the hour each hour, usually at 11am 12pm, 1pm and 2pm (times will vary so please double check for your date before coming).
'Tower on the hour' will cost £8 per adult and £4 for U16s. A family ticket (max 2 adults + 4 children) is £20.
Under 16s must be supervised by an adult (1 adult per 2 children). Unfortunately children under 8 are not able to climb the Tower for insurance purposes.
The Tower climb is hard work and involves climbing 235 steps up a steep, narrow, winding staircase. The staircase narrows significantly at the top and should only be tackled if you are feeling fit, healthy and well.
Although climbers are supervised by Cathedral staff you are welcome to climb at your own pace.
