    About this place

    City Hill is a 5 hectare landscaped hill located in the centre of Canberra, surrounded by Vernon Circle. It is central to the original design of Canberra and features formal tree plantings from the 1920s.

    In a symbolic representation as the heart of the national capital, 6 major avenues radiate from City Hill.

    Paved level pathways run throughout the park. At the center of the park is a flagpole flying the ACT flag since 1989. The highest point of City Hill offers views overlooking Lake Burley Griffin. The park is a popular spot for locals to relax, have a picnic, or read a book. It provides shade, grass, and seating for visitors. Dogs are welcome on-leash.

    Accessible toilets can be found under 500m away at Alinga Street, Mort Street & High Jinks.

    Accessible parking can be found at Constitution Avenue & Section 63 Car Park.
