We drove up to the lookout to take some photos of Canberra and watch the sunset. Perfectly positioned to look over the War Museum across the vista to Parliament House. Many people had done the bush walk to the top. Signs inform you about the planning of this well planned city. Lots of birdlife including colourful crimson rosellas. The wallabies emerged as the sun set. A must see lookout.
Mt Ainslie is a great viewpoint to see out over Canberra. We went for the afternoon, but the morning views would be just as beautiful.
W have recently visited Canberra and always take our visitors to the Lookout. It gives you a wonderful view of not only the city but for klm away. If you have the time visit it in the night, amazing.
If you would like to take some scenic photo's then this place will fit the bill, dont attempt to try and walk up to far.
Mt Ainslie lookout is included on many standard tours of Canberra, and it is worth it for the great view of the entire surrounding area.
