Canberra is situated near the Brindabella Ranges and its altitude ranges from 550 metres to 700 metres. Therefore, its main landforms are hills. The highest point is Mount Majura at 888 metres (2,913 ft). Other large hills include Mt Taylor, Mt Ainslie, Mt Mugga Mugga and Black Mountain. Canberra itself lies within grasslands, called the Canberra Basin. Lake George (which is near, not in, Canberra) is on a Fault. The Molonglo River flows through Canberra.

Canberra is an inland, planned city. Its oldest and innermost suburbs, surrounding its central lake are well planned featuring long straight avenues and lots of curved streets because these parts of the city are built around huge circles.

The newer, outer suburbs feature huge sprawling expanses of streets, which connect to long arterial roads, which then however, dont lead back to the central CBD. Instead they lead to 'town centres' which are like mini CBD's these are then all interconnected to eachother and the main CBD.

Canberra has strict hight regulations stating no building the central area is to be taller than the parliament house flagpole. Meaning there are no towering skyscrapers. This is stupid because it promotes huge urban sprawl and there already is a supertall tower located on the top of black mountain, which is easily more visible than the flagpole
