Arthur’s Secrets – Moderate Grade Walk
Come along on a guided walk to learn more about Arthur’s Seat’s turbulent past, created by fire and ice, on selected dates.
Find out about the people who lived and worked in the Park from seven thousand years ago up until the present day and learn more about the rare wildlife that makes the Park so special.
This event includes a moderate grade walk. The route contains rough tracks, uneven and boggy terrain, steep inclines and declines. Local roads and car parks may be subject to closures. Please contact the Historic Environment Scotland Ranger Service for more information.
