BOOK YOUR ADVENTURE
  • What is SCALE and What can I expect on the day?

    • SCALE is an exciting new aerial adventure in the heart of Cardiff's City centre on the roof of the Principality Stadium.

    • THE CLIMB - The adventure starts with the CLIMB. This is the main element of SCALE, and everyone is required to undertake the CLIMB to get to the roof. It comprises of a steady walk up 200 standard size steps to the roof's canopy. You will be escorted on a bespoke walkway around the west side of the roof, take a gentle sloped climb over the stadium ARCH (the backbone of the stadium), and then out across the SPIRE 35m high above the River Taff. Time will then be given on the main viewing platform to take in the views of the city, the Brecon Beacons and Welsh Coastline, before heading along the stadium EDGE, and back down to Basecamp. Throughout your experience your Climb Guide will relay facts and information about the stadium and the surrounding area and be on hand to ensure your safety and that you have a great experience. Please allow approx. 90minutes for the CLIMB from check in to when you leave; However, it can take slightly longer or shorter depending on the size and agility of the tour group.

    • THE EXTRAS - the ZIP & the DROP: (add 30mins per experience to your tour time) To extend your experience there are a further two exhilarating elements to SCALE which are designed to ignite your sense of adventure! Neither is compulsory, and you may choose to add both experiences or just one preferred option.

    • THE ZIP - After completing the CLIMB you will ascend a further 5 flights of "ships ladder" style stairs to the Crow's Nest 60m above pitch level, where you will take in extensive elevated views of Cardiff and the surrounding skyline. The ZIP is a zipwire that allows you to fly 170m across the canopy of the stadium roof from south to north, traveling at approximately 27mph.

    • THE DROP - This is a 30m drop abseil experience which descends from the Viewing Platform back down to ground level. It is always the last part of SCALE and is a far more exhilarating way to get back down than taking the 200 stairs!

    • PHOTOGRAPHS AND MERCHANDISE. We have fixed cameras on the roof which will capture your experience should you wish to purchase them, and SCALE merchandise can be purchased in Basecamp.

    • Please refer to the safety requirements for SCALE before you book to ensure this experience is suitable for you and your group.

    • Under 18s must be always accompanied by an adult during the experience. If your child wishes to return to Basecamp at any point - then so must you. If bringing minors, it's a good idea to have a spare adult on hand to wait in Basecamp or who is prepared to accompany a child back down if they want to return to ground level

    • SO WHAT SHOULD I WEAR?

    • For your safety, you will be fitted into a full body harness, and will need to follow these guidelines to complete the SCALE Activity:

      • You should cover your shoulders, midsection, and upper legs

      • Wear secure-fitting boots, sneakers or closed-toe shoes.

      • Long hair should be tied back

    • COME DRESSED FOR THE WEATHER! We climb in every weather except high winds and thunderstorms! Rain does not stop us and makes for a really exhilarating experience! So, we recommend that you dress appropriately to keep warm and dry, or protected from the sun.
