CITY VIEW ROUTE
On the City View route the participants will travel as one group with a guide, and they’re attached to a safety harness that connects to a wire. You’ll experience the city from an all-new point of view, starting from the iconic Tammerkoski rapid view, heading towards the central squares. As you admire the view, you’ll hear historical and surprising stories about Tampere.
For safety reasons the maximum group size is 6 people. The overall duration is approximately 60 minutes.
As the route goes on a path with no handrails, each participant will wear a safety harness that connects to a safety wire. For this reason we do not recommend the participants to wear skirts or dresses. When choosing your shoes, please note that the route is partially steel grates and there are stairs along the way.

PANORAMA DECK
Panorama Deck, as the name suggests, is an observation deck accessed by walking on duckboards on the roof. From the deck there’s a gorgeous view of the city centre, the historical factory, Tammerkoski and Näsijärvi.
Panorama deck can be traversed at one’s own pace without safety equipment.
Please note that the route has stairs, so it is not unobstructed.
No booking ahead required.
