Slip into Inverleith, a low-key green corner of Edinburgh that locals tend to keep to themselves. Spend an hour on an easy, unhurried walk away from the busier city sights.
Full description
Inverleith is a free, open-all-hours green space in the north of Edinburgh, geared towards a relaxed walk of around an hour at a medium pace. It is flagged as a local and hidden-gem kind of place, which suggests it is used more by neighbours than by visitors following guidebook routes.
Its aesthetic appeal makes it a pleasant fit for early mornings and daytime hours alike, with plenty of flexibility since there are no gates, tickets or bookings to plan around. Little detail is published about specific facilities, so expect simple, unhurried time outdoors.
