The highland games in Edinburgh are quite a spectacle
There’s definitely something special about the traditional Highland Games in Edinburgh. Perhaps it’s the fact that they’ve been held for so long, or that the activities themselves are so unusual – caber tossing and hammer throwing spring immediately to mind.
Or it might be the location. Edinburgh is a beautiful city that bursts with character and is the ideal base for more outdoor activities in Scotland, from climbing Arthur’s Seat to venturing out into the Highlands. Combined with the Games, it’s an unbeatable combination of history, culture, excitement and of course some good old fashioned fun.
