About as much as I’d want to see a tramline to the top.
Pat Dunlop
No, leave this lovely place alone. We are so lucky to have it, don't tamper with natural beauty.
K Grace Rogerson
No! Make the current paths safer.

Hide AdAnother 10 years projec plus billions. Just Just fix current path. Cheaper, natural.

All that’s needed is some minimal dynamite blasting to remove the rotten rock – be all done and dusted for a few grand.
Mairi Mackinnon
Great idea for folks to go and view and helps to stop corrosion at same time.

Hide AdPut up a sign at either end if you must, but get those fences down! Anyone unable to see there are dangers from loose rock and stones on a path like that one needs putting away for their own good anyway! There are numerous paths in the Highlands that are just as 'risky'. Get a life and let the walker be the judge!
Helen Blackburn
Not a chance. Arthur's Seat is magnificent and doesn't need any artificial assistance to remain magnificent.
Jim Cowan
The area is wonderful as it is. Please don't turn it into a theme park. I used to live not far from Duddingston Loch and have memories going as far back as celebrating the end of the war. When I venture back from Canada it's always on my list of places to visit.
Raymond Rose
No... next question. Just make the current path safe.
William Hatton
Absolutely not.

Mag Reid
No, leave it natural, too much tampering with 'everything' nowadays!
Ian Shepherd
No! We don’t need gimmicks! It’s fine just the way it is! What a next, an escalator up the Pentlands?
Fiona Cordery
No, leave the landscape alone!

Hide AdLeave it in its natural state. There's always someone wanting do destroy the natural beauty of this city.
Liz Stewart
Definitely no, don’t spoil Arthur’s Seat, there’s enough of Edinburgh being destroyed. Before we know it they’ll be building student flats at the bottom.
Alexander Mclachlan
No, it would attract too many tourists and spoil all the natural scenery.

Robert William Tofts
No, keep it natural.
Stephen Bell
No, leave as is, I played there as a youngster and it’s changed so much in the past 40 odd years.Just leave it the way it is.
Pat Christie
No; an eyesore and absolutely ridiculous idea.
Stella Campbell
Absolutely no way.
Danny Murphy
No, just no, and another no to the £2.5m cost
Jen Cresswell
It’s not high enough for a walkway like that. My brain can’t work it out.

Hide AdAbsolutely not! Fixing the path with proper ongoing maintenance surely cannot be more expensive than an eyesore which the clowncil will surely monetise for tourists pleasure only.
Shonagh Potter
Np! Ridiculous suggestion.
Bence Solymar
I'd sooner go for the wire netting over the rocks than this monster.
Lynne Chalmers
I’d like to see the potholes filled in.
Kirsty Bell
Noooooo, would ruin a beautiful place.
Tracey Yorkston
Maybe focus on getting the park opened again before anything else - long way round in the car today.

Ecological, geological and anthropological vandalism. Absolutely not!
