Mount Ainslie Lookout
Overview
For picture-perfect views of Canberra, you can’t go past a visit to Mount Ainslie.
Walk, cycle or drive to the lookout and enjoy the impressive scenery, lovely at all times but a particular treat at sunrise and sunset.
Take in Lake Burley Griffin and many of Canberra's national attractions, framed by picturesque mountain ranges.
See how Walter Burley Griffin’s vision for the city has been brought to life.
A hotspot for photographers, the vista is complemented by the abundance of native birds and wildlife.
“Great View”
Reviewed 2w ago by BeijingEyeGreat view of Canberra and super easy drive up the hill to the lookout. Worth a trip, does not take long at all. Quite a few buses of tourists!

Reviewed 3w ago by Discover342129Great short hike and fantastic view. Good to go early in the morning and see the city undisturbed views. Marked trail with information along the walk.

Reviewed 2mos ago by 331suzannefThe entire horizon is before you. The clear air and the lack of anything blocking the view is breathtaking. It seems that Australia is full of these types of opportunities.
