Jane's Walk Willowbrae 2026

Jane’s Walk is a community-based approach to city building that uses volunteer-led walking tours to make space for people to connect around their neighbourhoods. Starting in 2006 and named for American-Canadian urban activist Jane Jacobs, by 2017 there were over 1700 Jane's Walks in 225 cities around the world. Sunday Assembly Edinburgh, the city's 'secular congregation' are again acting as Edinburgh hosts. There are walks planned in the West End, Willowbrae, and Leith.

We invite you to join Jane's Walk Willowbrae. We will meet at the Lillyhall Terrace entrance to Holyrood Park, at 11am on Saturday 9th May 2026. Walk host Lara Celini will lead a walk around the area with stops every so often to survey the view, talk about things we're noticing, stories of the past, present and future, and things we love about Lochend. The walk will take an hour and a half with plenty of stops. And it's free!

Please register now and join us on the day! Any questions or concerns about Jane's Walk Edinburgh, please contact Mark McKergow at [email protected] or on 07976 936086.
