At the rate that our technology evolves, it didn’t take long for Canberra’s Telstra Tower to be rendered obsolete. It may not serve its initial purpose as a service provider, but it does stand as a pretty recognisable member on Canberra’s skyline. The steep walk up to the tower (812 metres above sea level) rewards you with beautiful panoramas of Canberra's skyline and beyond.
