The Meadows

The Meadows is located at Melville Drive, south of Edinburgh near the city centre. It is one of the most important open spaces in Edinburgh. It is about 3 km if you go round the perimeter of the park. There are however tree lined paths criss crossing the park from one end to the other. The park used to be a large Loch long ago before it was converted to a park. It is now a large open grassland which has a children's playground, a croquet club, tennis courts and recreational sport pitches. there are plenty of benches and picnic tables by around the park. Large trees that give shelters on the main tracks and beautifully lined trees along the side paths.
