Dog walks in Edinburgh
Dog walks in Edinburgh - volcanic hills, woodland paths, and open moorland within the city. Off-lead and terrain details for every route.
Arthur’s Seat rises to 251 metres from the centre of Edinburgh, an extinct volcanic hill with off-lead walking across most of it and views across the whole city. Dog walks in Edinburgh extend further than most expect: the Pentland Hills add reservoir walking and open moorland just a short drive south, taking you quickly out of the city and into open countryside.
