Are there height and weight requirements?

Yes. You need to be at least 140 cm tall and weigh no more than 120 kg for the safety equipment to work.

How physically demanding is it?

It's a physical activity with over 300 steps and sections where you balance and climb ladders – expect your pulse to rise and perhaps a light sweat, even though the walkways, safety equipment and your guide's help make it easier. It still suits almost anyone who can climb stairs, and you can choose the difficulty during the tour. If heights make you a little nervous, that simply adds another layer of challenge, but most people find the equipment and guidance make the tour feel safe and manageable.

What should I wear?

Trainers and clothing suited to the weather. We provide the safety equipment.

How many people can join?

Between 1 and 20 people per booking.

Where do we meet?

At the entrance to the castle tower, Drottning Christinas väg 1A, Uppsala.

Is there parking?

Yes, parking is available directly in the castle courtyard.

Are you open all year?

Yes, we take bookings all year round.

Can I buy a gift card?

Yes. Gift cards are valid for 1 year with the option to extend for another year.

Which language is the tour guided in?

The website language does not determine the guiding language. Ask us which languages are available for your tour.
