The new edition of "Getting to know Edinburgh" (published in 2025 I hope) will have sketch maps of each route. Here are two. @secretedinburgh.bsky.social
Map of a route from Calton  Hill to the Lawnmarket via the National Gallery. Map of a route from Corstorphine to Rroseburn via the Hill and Saughton  Gardens.

@karenmca.bsky.social Many thanks for the RT. Just off to sing Harwood in A Flat Te Deum.
