Begin your walk at the majestic Scott Monument, its Gothic spire honoring Sir Walter Scott. Continue east along Princes Street and follow the short, steep path up to Calton Hill. At the top, enjoy iconic sights like the National Monument, the Nelson Monument, and sweeping views across the Firth of Forth — one of the best photo spots for Arthur’s Seat, the Old Town skyline, and Edinburgh Castle.
Descend toward the Old Town and head up the Royal Mile, lined with historic buildings, narrow closes, and classic Scottish shops. Visit St Giles’ Cathedral to admire its crown-shaped steeple and the intricate Thistle Chapel. Just outside, find the Heart of Midlothian mosaic, marking the old Tolbooth prison and continuing the quirky tradition of spitting for good luck.
