Arthur's Seat, Edinburgh Scotland

A hike up Arthur's Seat - a 823 Ft. extinct volcano which is located just a little way behind Hollyrood Castle at one end of the Royal Mile in Edinburgh. It's an easy walk and several trails crisscross the park. Sometimes you can find a group of rock climbers there practicing their skills. The views from Arthur's Seat are spectacular in every direction as you can see for miles. You can get a great view of the entire city and Edinburgh Castle which is cuilt on another extinct volcano!
