Quote: The origin of the name "Arthur's Seat" is unclear. Some see it as a reference to the legendary King Arthur. In 1912, John Milne published a book on Gaelic place names in which he derived the name from "Suidhe Ard-Thir," which translates roughly as "place on high ground." However, the word order here would be odd. Historian William Maitland put forward a different theory as early as the 18th century. According to him, the name would be "Àrd-na-Said," "height of arrows," a variant that was later modified to "Archer's Seat" and later "Arthur's Seat."

The Pentland Hills (a range of hills south of Edinburgh) offer countless hiking opportunities. One of the "best" (= the northernmost) is Allermuir Hill. There are many paths up the mountain, but the best route is undoubtedly the panoramic route from the Midlothian Snowsports Center parking lot to the summit. The center is...???...interesting... (Skiing on mats in the summer is also possible!), and the summit offers magnificent views in all directions!

It's breathtakingly beautiful here! :-)

100.000 rivets! The gasholder is now restored into a park! A great place for a picnic or some stretching :)

Lovely set of paths, very popular with a variety of types of users so care needed if biking or running

After the peaks it's all flat terrain and definitely more busy on a dry day. Walk the way back after the last peak if you prefer the challenge of it.

A little gem within Holyrood Park that’s perfect for a quick, scenic escape - often full with swans, geese and ducks

Excellent spot for weekly 5k park run with brilliant scenic views! This takes place every Saturday at 09.30am with around 400-500 in attendance and a great full lap of the promenade covered.
