The '''Magnetic Hill''' is a Canadian [[gravity hill]], a type of [[optical illusion]] created by rising and descending terrain. It is located at the northwestern edge of the city of [[Moncton]] in the [[Provinces and territories of Canada|Canadian province]] of [[New Brunswick]].<br />
<br />
The general area is at the base of a ridge named "[[Lutes Mountain, New Brunswick|Lutes Mountain]]", which rises several hundred feet above the surrounding [[Petitcodiac River]] valley.<br />

With the rise in tourism after the [[Second World War]], the roughly 1 kilometre segment of gravel road became one of Moncton's prime tourist attractions (along with the [[tidal bore]] on the Petitcodiac River). Magnetic Hill is now a historic property.<ref name="Magnetic Hill">[http://www.historicplaces.ca/en/rep-reg/place-lieu.aspx?id=4004&pid=0 Historic Places], of Canada.</ref><br />
