Parks & Nature

Holyrood Park is a stunning 640 acre green area — a short walk from the Royal Mile in the heart of the city. Most of the park is taken up by Edinburgh's highest point and ancient volcano Arthur's Seat (251m) which is ideal for steep hill running or an energetic walk.

Sightseeing

Edinburgh Castle is popular not only for its pivotal role in Scottish history, but also because of the spectacular views from its battlements: on a clear day the vistas stretch all the way to Fife. You need at least three hours to see everything it has to offer, from the Crown Room to the Scottish National War Memorial. In august the forecourt is used for the Military Tattoo, a festival of magnificently outfitted marching bands and regiments.
