Holyrood Park is literally on the doorstep and is a wonderful place to walk, jog or enjoy the fresh air and views. It has a 5 mile radius and has been a royal park since the 12th century. It is full of hills, lochs, glens and cliffs providing a haven of wild landscape right in the city. In the middle is Arthur's Seat - Edinburgh's famous hill which you can climb up to experience spectacular views of the city.
