Mount Ainslie

Drive, cycle or even run up Mount Ainslie to get a magnificent perspective of how architect Walter Burley Griffin's plan for Canberra has come to life through the buildings and monuments.

Mount Ainslie or Mount Ainslie-Majura is a part of Canberra Nature Park. Small native flowers such as bluebells and everlasting daisies add beautiful colour to the bushland in spring and early summer, and many small mammals such as sugar gliders and ring-tail possums find shelter in the hollows of the old scribbly gums on Mount Ainslie.
