Sightseeing

Beautiful views of the whole city. This former volcano offers terrain to delight hikers of all levels. There are many cosy spaces throughout the park to just lay in the sun or enjoy the calm. A nice way to escape the city. If you want to explore different neighborhoods of the city, you can walk the perimeter of the park and wander into connecting side streets on any side. Also, you might decide to trek up to Arthur's Seat for a photo or to take in the sights.

Leith is the old maritime centre of Edinburgh and the Port of Leith steeped in shipping history. Now a vibrant place to hang out for weekend meals or drinks down by the water. Take the #35 towards Ocean Terminal and get off at Parliament Street. Explore the shore and walk your way back down Leith Walk towards New Town, or if you're up for a nature walk, take the scenic route along the Water of Leith which passes through many of Edinburgh's neighborhoods.

The Dean Village is a tranquil green oasis on the Water of Leith, only five minutes walk from Princes Street. In the past the village housed mills of various kinds, and the remnants of the industry can still be seen today. Look out for mill stones and carved stone plaques with baked bread and pies. Follow the walkway along the Water of Leith and you will come to the impressive Dean Bridge designed by Thomas Telford, and the classical temple of St Bernard’s Well.
