Visit ArcelorMittal Orbit to make the ascent up the UK’s tallest sculpture where you will be rewarded with breath-taking views over the park and 20 miles beyond. The magnificent looping structure of the ArcelorMittal Orbit is an iconic symbol of the Queen Elizabeth Olympic Park and the London 2012 Games and was fashioned from 2000 tonnes of steel, more than half of it recycled. The Slide is 178m long and 76m high and will twist and turn 12 times, including a tight corkscrew section named the ‘bettfeder’ – after the German word for ‘bedspring’. The Slide ends with a 50 metre straight run to the ground. In the exhilarating 40-second trip, you will be expected to hit speeds of up to 15 miles per hour!
