Arthur's Seat

Arthur’s Seat is the highest point in Holyrood Park and the views over Edinburgh are spectacular. There’s lots to see in the park too – like the free exhibition, iron age forts and ruined medieval chapel.

You’ll need a pair of sturdy and comfortable shoes – it’s an enjoyable hill climb but the paths can be steep in places. And the routes can get busy on nice days so think about going early to avoid the crowds.
