This really doesn’t do justice, the crags are 250m high, and tower over the city. Instead of taking the easy option of the walking tracks around the base to the top, we decided to go straight up… in some places it was so steep that we were standing up and touching the ground in front of us with our hands, but it was definitely worth it. The next couple of pics show some of the view, which included of course Edinburgh Castle and all around Edinburgh.
