Holyrood Park is a royal park in central Edinburgh, about 1 mile to the east of Edinburgh Castle. It is open to the public and has an array of hills, lochs, glens and cliffs providing a wild piece of highland landscape within its 650-acre expanse. The park is associated with the Palace of Holyroodhouse and was formerly a royal hunting estate, today it shapes Edinburgh’s skyline and provides recreation for many locals and tourists alike. Arthur’s Seat, the park’s highest point and the remains of a volcano, provides a challenging climb to the top with the reward of a 360-degree view across Edinburgh and the Lothians.
