Join us for a stroll up Calton Hill for an unmissable sunset view!

Located in the heart of Edinburgh is Calton Hill, an extinct volcano that is a must-see location for a stunning panoramic view of Edinburgh's skyline. From the viewpoint, all the major city landmarks can be seen including Edinburgh Castle, the Scott Monument, The Balmoral, Princes Street, Arthur's Seat, Holyrood Palace and Leith.

Atop the hill are some of Edinburgh's most prominent and striking monuments. The columns of the unfinished National Monument and the large dome of The City Observatory are reminiscent of Ancient Greek temples.

Calton Hill is a popular place to sit on a sunny day with friends, watch the sunset over the Firth of Forth, ring in the New Year above Edinburgh's Hogmanay celebrations or join in the celtic rituals of the Beltane Fire Festival every April.

Nearby places to check out include the new St.James Shopping Centre, the Edinburgh Playhouse, Leith Walk, trendy Broughton Street or the National Records of Scotland if you are interested in researching your Scottish ancestry!
