Currently I have a few lists in my SharePoint site that has been hidden from the user (via the hidden property which was set programmatically). I was wondering whether there are any special urls/web or ways to access those lists? e.g. {site}/lists/hiddenList or something similar?

Thanks.

The URL for a Hidden list is no different than any other list, no hoops to jump through. You just need to know the base URL.

If it is not a Document Library, it will be located at {siteurl}/Lists/{listname}/AllItems.aspx. If it is a Document Library, it will be located at {siteurl}/{listname}/Forms/AllItems.aspx. These would give you the default list view assuming it is still called AllItems.aspx.
