Creator's Key Takeaways

I was here in August during Fringe Festival and it was very crowded and you had to book the tickets in advance when arriving and I would say it's really busy in Edinburgh during June, July and August.

Assuming the weather permits, I highly recommend this hike while you're here.

We love free, don't we?

I would highly recommend it.
