    The clear view from the top is outstanding. Too see the meticulous planning that went into Canberra from this height is a joy to behold.

    Love the walk to the top from the back of the War Memorial. Definitely worth going just before dusk to see a magnificent sunset.

    Great view, just watch out for inconsiderate bastards who think that everyone wants to hear their shitty music
