Great for solo travellers and small groups. Join a qualified local mountain guide on a hike starting right in the city centre.

Watch the sunset from the top of Arthur's Seat - Edinburgh's highest hill (251 meters). Get outside and enjoy nature on a scenic route to the summit, away from the crowds.

This hike is great for anyone who enjoys the outdoors, natural scenery, photography, or exercise. You'll be able watch the sun go down behind Edinburgh Castle, the Old Town, and the mountains in the background. Enjoy views out to see and towards the Scottish Highlands on the horizon.

** Please arrive a few minutes early so we can begin the hike on time.

** We can't wait for late arrivals.

Arthur's Seat

Watch the sunset from the summit of Arthur's Seat. We take a scenic route up the hill, away from the crowds, and reach the top in time to watch the sunset. There is plenty of time to stope and take photos before heading back down into the city.

Great overall experience!! Arthur Seat is open to the public but the trails aren’t really marked, so having Marcus as a guide meant we could relax, happily follow along, and really enjoy the views. He is an excellent host and guide - pointing out plants, animals, and telling stories of the park and the city. Highly highly recommended - even when sunrise or sunset are at extreme times!!! You are only on vacation for a few days - sleep later !!

Hiking up Arthur’s Seat with Mountain Marcus was a memorable part of our trip. Watching the sun diffuse into the gentle clouds over the Edinburgh sky with views in every direction was a sight we will always remember - one that photos cannot do justice to, although I tried. Marcus kept this easy/moderate hike to the peak moving at a comfortable pace and adjusted it based on the group’s hiking skill. He also shared a lot of great info along the way regarding geology, how the area was shaped by glaciers millions of years ago and how it’s currently a great recreation spot for runners and hikers. Marcus’s easygoing approach made this hike a fantastic experience and one we greatly enjoyed. It’s the best way to see Edinburgh from a “bird’s eye” vantage point. I highly recommend doing this if you have the time. Thanks Marcus.
Wonderful sunrise view from the top!

It was a wonderful experience. Our guide Marcus was very knowledgeable. He kept the pace none too harsh. He remained careful about our safety. It was nice to have some tea and snack at the top.

Marcus was a great guide- informative about the area and thoughtful with a Scottish treat on the summit. There were plenty of breaks and Marcus was intentional about checking in on how everyone was doing to ensure hikers of different abilities were doing okay. I especially appreciated how friendly Marcus was- that made for an even better experience! This was my favorite experience in all of Edinburgh- highly, highly recommend!!
Unbelievable views!

Wow the view is worth the hike. We were told expect it to take about 45 minutes, it took us an hour but we took a couple breaks on the way up. Wear good shoes, the trail is a mix of stone/sand and rock. Could be slippery in places.
