Meadowfield Park is on the eastern slope of Arthur's Seat with views of the Forth Estuary and East Lothian. Trees in the park include poplar, whitebeam, silver birch, pine, ash, beech and hawthorn. There is a football pitch on a flat area, but the park primarily provides a place to walk and play, roll Easter eggs, or sledge in winter.
