Eiffel Tower Opens Temporary 40-Meter Rope-Net Bridge

The limited-time rope-net crossing is free to try with on-site registration.

Overview

  • The installation sits on the first floor about 60 meters up, linking the east and west sections of the monument.
  • Visitors walk across a sturdy rope net that introduces a slight wobble during the 40-meter crossing.
  • The feature is scheduled to remain in place through May 3.
  • Opening day saw long afternoon queues, including participants who traveled from abroad.
  • The swift interest follows a year in which nearly 7 million people entered the tower and about 10 million visited the plaza below.
