An Experience You Will Never Forget

Test your nerves and face your fears when you take on this epic abseil for Legasee!
Experience the most spectacular views across London from 80 metres above the ground!
Take in some of the city’s most iconic sights as you make your descent, including The Gherkin, St Paul’s, Canary Wharf, Wembley Stadium and The Queen Elizabeth Olympic Park.
This is a thrilling challenge that requires very little prior experience or training. Our Wire & Sky abseil instructors will look after you every step of the way.
We will have food and refreshments, so bring plenty of people along to watch you complete this brave feat.

It was amazing! I’ll never forget that nerve-wracking moment of stepping over the edge but it was worth it for the huge sense of achievement when I got to the bottom.
