Best of Edinburgh: The Royal Mile & Old Town

100 min4.4 km12 stops

Walk the spine of Edinburgh's Old Town, starting at the ramparts of Edinburgh Castle and descending the Royal Mile to the Palace of Holyroodhouse, with detours to Victoria Street and the National Museum of Scotland (with a bonus track on Greyfriars Bobby, whose statue you pass on the way), and the hidden Blair Street Vaults and Dunbar's Close Garden along the way. The walk finishes with a stroll into Holyrood Park itself, to the loch at the foot of Arthur's Seat. Start at the Castle Esplanade, an easy walk up from Princes Street or a short ride to the top of the Royal Mile.
