The controversial £2m Marble Arch Mound will be free to enter from Monday.
The project - dubbed London’s worst tourist attraction - was shut a week after it opened on July 26 in response to visitor complaints.
Westminster council then offered refunds to anyone who had already paid the £4.50 fee, before deciding to scrap the fee altogether.
Stuart Love, Westminster’s chief executive, said: “We wanted to open the mound in time for the summer holidays and we did not want to disappoint people who had already booked tickets.
“We made a mistake and we apologise to everyone who hasn’t had a great experience on their visit. With that in mind we’re going to make the mound free for everyone to climb throughout August.”
