The short climb up Elgin Hill is rewarded with sweeping views over Inverness Pond and the rooftops of McKenzie Towne. Three stone arches stand at the summit, creating one of the area's most recognizable landmarks and a popular photo stop. Benches near the top make it easy to linger for a few minutes before heading back down to the pathways below. In winter, the hillside transforms into one of the neighbourhood's favourite tobogganing spots.
