Sitting high above the city, the castle defines Edinburgh’s skyline. The views alone make the climb worthwhile, especially on a clear day.
Lively, historic, and full of character. Walking from the castle down to Holyrood gives you a real feel for the city’s energy and past.
A short hike that feels like a proper escape. Reaching the top gives you sweeping views across Edinburgh and out to the coast.
Narrow streets, dark stone buildings, and tucked-away alleys make this area feel atmospheric and slightly mysterious.
Wide Georgian streets give a calmer contrast to the Old Town. It feels refined, walkable, and easy to explore.
An easy climb with big rewards. Watching the city glow as the sun goes down is one of Edinburgh’s standout moments.
