Why is one of Edinburgh's best views still off limits?

Edinburgh's iconic view from the Radical Road at Arthur's Seat remains closed since 2018 due to safety concerns from rockfalls. The path, with historical significance linked to the Radical War of 1820 and geologist James Hutton, is a popular spot offering stunning views. Plans are in place to reopen parts of the Radical Road with rockfall mitigation measures, but challenges remain regarding funding and logistics. The closure's impact on Holyrood Park's trail network and visitor experience underscores the urgency for a comprehensive reopening plan to preserve this historic and scenic landmark.
