Oh wow a sunny day in Scotland?! Let’s go hiking! *Cue the wind* 💨😂 All jokes aside, hiking to Arthur’s Seat is a must when visiting Edinburgh! It’s an extinct volcano located near the city center, and it’s really not a bad hike at all (it took us about 30 minutes to the top)! Plus, the view of the city is BEAUTIFUL 😍☀️ Afterwards you can hike right down to Old Town and treat yourself to a post hike drink or grab some grub 😋 📍: Arthur’s Seat | Edinburgh, Scotland ••••• #arthursseat #edinburgh #edinburghhike #edinburghscotland #arthursseatedinburgh #thingstodoedinburgh #edinburghweather #funnyreel #funnytravelmoments #scotlandweather #visitedinburgh #visitscotland
