Just take the trip up there for fantastic views of the city and surrounding areas More

...suggest go during the day. We went in evening and views a bit obscured by glass reflections More

Watch the unrelenting growth unfold before your eyes at this height! Worth a daytime, afternoon sunset or evening drive after dinner. More

Take a slow drive up to Mount Ainslie but keep a good eye out for the roos in the area. A must-visit spot for tourists who want a birds' eye view of the national capital - and it's free. If you go out night watch out for the steam-filled cars parked around the place! More

I liked Mt Ainslie as much for the delightful walk there as for the stunning views. Go slowly and quietly, and you'll likely come across gentle wallabies, hopping demurely across the rocks. Not on the main path so much - you'll have to look for them in the scrub and rocks off the path. Just sit and wait. More

tough walk from behind the war memorial, but worth it at the end. gorgeous view, day or night. More

Very beautiful view from top of the mountain. You can see Canberra City, Airport, Queanbeyan, Dickson etc.. It is better go on evening so that you can watch the day time and night time view. More

Not really much too see up there besides a nice view of Canberra. Still worth a visit though. More

Arguably one of the best views of Canberra looking directly out over the Australian War Memorial, across the Lake, and over Parliament House and beyond. Nice walk from the memorial too! More
