  • Who's looking for a walk to do in Edinburgh? This one can't be ignored! The Seven Hills of Edinburgh is one of the city's best known challenges, with an official annual race taking place and many city explorer's also attempting it.
    In this video, I guide you through the challenge beginning at the official start point on Calton Hill before tackling Corstorphine Hill, Craiglockhart Hill, Braid Hill, Blackford Hill, Arthur's Seat and finishing back at Calton Hill. The route I take is the one recommended by race organisers, although my route alters very slightly on a couple of occasions.
    Wait until the end of the video to see what the winning times are from the 2022 race, they are remarkable compared to my time, as you will soon find out.
    Let me know in the comments below if you would attempt the Seven Hills of Edinburgh challenge below! It's a great way to explore every corner of the city.
