Come join us as we hike up Arthur's Seat to take in the breathtaking views of the city. There are many different paths to choose from, at different difficulties and lengths. All are welcome! "Arthur’s Seat…a jagged, grassy prominence rising up from the urban sprawl of Edinburgh, offers one of the best views of the city. It’s a short, slightly strenuous hike to the highest point, but absolutely worth it to look out over Edinburgh from this vantage point. Arthur’s Seat is located in Holyrood Park, at the end of the Royal Mile. This large, grass covered hill is the remains of an extinct volcano that erupted 350 million years ago. Arthur’s Seat is the highest point of this extinct volcano."
