Another thing on my Edinburgh
to-do list was Arthur’s Seat, an extinct volcano in Edinburgh. At
an elevation of 822ft, you can see for miles around once you’ve climbed to the
top.
We started the walk by passing Holyrood
Palace and made our way up the hill; you could see the Balmoral and the castle
quite clearly in the distance. There was a stream of people, so you can’t get
lost, but at the plaque at the top of Arthur’s Seat, it did get quite busy. After
a strenuous climb, you are rewarded with amazing views of Edinburgh and across
the water at Fife.
