Pentlands Capital View | Hiking Edinburgh
We’ve had some absolutely wonderful weather here in Scotland over the past few weeks, a rare occurrence for us! It’s been nice for so long that I’m starting to get wary of how long it can last –…
Blackford Hill | Hiking Edinburgh
The city of Edinburgh is built across seven hills, so it shouldn’t be surprising that there are ample locations for hill walking and hiking, ranging in difficulty. Calton Hill is one of the simplest climbs, while Arthur’s Seat…
