What are some popular attractions in Edinburgh?

A scenic view of Edinburgh

Scotland’s capital is awash in history and architecture, from the cobblestone streets and lanes of the medieval Old Town to the wide squares of New Town. The city is a magnet for travellers with its cosy pubs, cocktail bars, and thriving arts scene, but it’s also home to a number of green spaces, from the Meadows to Holyrood Park and Calton Hill, from where you can enjoy views over the city. A more energetic climb gets you up the extinct volcano of Arthur's Seat, where panoramic views are superb. The nearby Pentland Hills also promise great hillwalking.

Hipcamp has the perfect pitch to match your camping style.
