The London Landmarks Skyscraper Challenge lets you zip wire between two iconic buildings

Calling all daredevils and adrenaline junkies, an exhilarating challenge is taking place in central London next year.

A brand new zip wire linking the Gherkin and Cheesegrater skyscrapers is coming to the capital for two days only next September.

The London Landmarks Skyscraper Challenge invites thrill seekers to take part in the charity event.

The exhilarating event combines a tower run up 42 floors of The Cheesegrater (aka, Leadenhall Building), and then participants can either abseil back down the outside of the building, or ride a zip-wire over to the Gherkin (aka, 30 St Mary Axe).

The challenge is in aid of the not-for-profit event organised by Tommy’s, a pregnancy and baby-loss charity with a goal to raise £1 million for Tommy’s and other charities.

If you want to take part then you’ll need to secure a place with one of the charity partners before you start fundraising.

Once you start fundraising, a target will be set depending on the challenge you choose.

Event spaces are limited so you’ll need to pre-register to see your chances of getting a spot.

You can do that via the London Landmarks Skyscraper Challenge website.

The Skyscraper Challenge takes place on September 9 & 10 2023.
