Euromast in Rotterdam
The Euromast is the iconic landmark of the city of Rotterdam and offers a stunning view of the impressive skyline and the harbor.

Views and Activities
When climbing the Euromast, you can expect a spectacular view that extends in all directions over the city. A particularly unique experience is the ride on the Euroscoop, a rotating gondola that takes guests to a height of 185 meters.

Whether you venture up alone, with friends, or as a couple, the view remains unforgettable.
In addition to the views, adventurous visitors can take the plunge from the top of the tower with abseiling or an exciting zipline activity. These experiences not only provide an adrenaline rush but also offer unique opportunities to see Rotterdam from a completely new perspective.
