Arthur's Seat is the main peak of the group of hills which form most of Holyrood Park, a wild piece of highland landscape in the centre of the city of Edinburgh, about a mile to the east of Edinburgh Castle. The hill rises above the city to a height of 251 m (823 ft), provides excellent panoramic views of the city, is relatively easy to climb, and is a popular walk. Arthur's Seat is often mentioned as one of the possible locations for Camelot, the legendary castle and court ruled by King Arthur and home to the Knights of the Round Table.
