Formerly known as Telstra Tower, Black Mountain Tower is one of Canberra's top attractions. The tower is located in a beautiful nature reserve and boasts 360-degree views of Canberra and the surrounding countryside. Follow one of the walking tracks on Black Mountain for picture perfect views over Canberra, and see habitats for many native plants and animals including the ringtail possum. Enjoy views from the viewing gallery or the two open viewing platforms.

The tower plays a vital role in Australia's telecommunication network and visitors can enjoy the history of telecommunications in Australia through a 'hands-on' experience when exploring the "Making Connections" exhibition featured in the tower.
