Like all urbirun routes, you can start wherever you like. Pay attention to the direction of the tour.

This exclusive loop route takes you from central Edinburgh to the charming Dean Village neighborhood, where you can run along the Water of Leigh, on quiet paths full of Scottish serenity.

A piece of nature in the heart of the city. And you might even see some fish jumping.

And last but not least, we've even included a short climb up Calton Hill, where you can enjoy magnificent views over the city (you might even be able to see the sea).

Bonus

Several other distances are available on this route (12.3km, 9.3km, 7.9km), as well as other Edinburgh routes in .gpx format and, of course, our Edinburgh Highlights self-audioguided tour.
