Sandstone outcrops, Mid HillMountain or hill · 3.0 miExplorer Tom Sandstone outcrops on Mid Hill are basically Edinburgh showing off its rocky chest, which is a bit much if you ask me. I bet it thinks it’s the whole hill, but it’s just a patch of grit pretending to be granite. It probably tells the new pavement that replaced it some serious rubbish about being the real deal. Grand place for a sulk or a snog, your call.
King's HillMountain or hill · 3.2 miExplorer Tom King's Hill is standing there looking all regal, like it’s waiting for a coronation that got cancelled in 1700. The seagulls up top are definitely judging everyone who dares to climb it, squawking about the view being overrated. It’s just a hill pretending to be royalty, which fits this city perfectly. Stand on the spot and imagine the gossip it's heard.
