Situated between the Highlands to the north and the Southern Uplands to the south, Edinburgh occupies a remarkable position. Walks based in and around the city take full advantage of some fine geological and historical features such as Arthur's Seat, Holyrood Park, Blackford Hill and its observatory and Corstorphine Hill, a rural enclave in the west of the city. Surrounding this fascinating city lies an impressive landscape of coastal panoramas and breathtaking views. The Pentlands rise above the surrounding countryside providing ideal walking opportunities for all ages.
