Parks & Nature

Holyrood park is a lovely spot from which to climb Arthur's Seat, have a picnic, or go for a jog. Despite it's proximity to Holyrood Palace, it is quieter and more serene than other Edinburgh parks.

One of Edinburgh's best loved parks. Expect to see plenty of dogs, tightrope walkers, cricketers, families, students, anyone with a spare afternoon or a lunch break. Tree lined walkways that look especially beautiful during cherry blossom season.
