Climbing Arthur’s Seat in Edinburgh

Climbing Arthur’s Seat in Edinburgh was high on my list of things to do while in Scotland and early in the morning on our last day there, my friend and I walked 10 minutes from our Airbnb to do just that!  Located a mile from the Edinburgh Castle and standing 822 feet above the City, the views are breathtaking!  This is the highest we got because it had drizzled and was a bit slippery and the route we chose to hike was a bit more like rock climbing.  But the view of the city was spectacular!

My friend Teresa took a photo of me with her camera navigating my way up the steep hill and she remarked that she wasn’t as worried about going up as she was with coming back down.
