This daring new attraction connects the tower’s north and south pillars, offering visitors a chance to walk above the void with unparalleled views of Paris.

This heart-pounding experience comes at no extra cost with your entry ticket to the Tower. To join, simply head to the first floor, scan one of the QR codes near the terrace or inside the Pavillon Ferrié restaurant, and book your spot. You can reserve for yourself and up to seven others.

What Is “Le Vertige de la Tour”?

Designed by Arboricorde, a company specializing in suspended structures, the bridge is made entirely of high-strength netting, creating a transparent floor effect that amplifies the thrill. Fully enclosed and secured with 25,000 meshes and anti-fall netting, the bridge is as safe as it is exhilarating.
