Fully updated for 2004, Walking Edinburgh is a thorough and absorbing guide to Scotland's enchanting capital and its environs. The 25 clearly mapped walks embrace this fascinating area's diversity. Included are the Old Town's Royal Mile, Princes Street and the ramparts of Edinburgh Castle, the New Town's Royal Botanic Garden and Scottish National Portrait Gallery, the Palace of Holyroodhouse, Arthur's Seat and the Observatory at Calton Hill. The walks also venture out to surrounding areas such as Leith and Cramond, the coast at St Andrews and Queensferry, and the magnificent Stirling Castle. Robin Gauldie is an authoritative guide to the area, and his rich background knowledge of history, architecture and contemporary developments sets the scene. Museums, galleries and other places of interest along the routes are highlighted, and personal recommendations for cafes, bars and restaurants are made. Essential visitor information is also provided. Walking Edinburgh is an indispensable guide to an extraordinary city.

Robin Gauldie hails from Dundee and lived in Edinburgh for many years. He read history at Edinburgh University before becoming a journalist, and is now a prolific travel writer whose other published works include several titles in New Holland's Globetrotter series. He now divides his time between Scotland, London and France.
