Victoria Park is a spacious and well-loved green area in north Edinburgh, situated between Trinity and Leith. Originally developed in the early 20th century on the grounds of Bonnington Park House, the park has grown into a vibrant community space with a rich historical backdrop. It features bowling greens, tennis courts, and tree-lined paths, and is part of the North Edinburgh Cycle Network, offering traffic-free access across the city. A statue of King Edward VII marks the entrance, while the surrounding architecture reflects the area’s evolution from Victorian villas to modern developments. The park has earned Green Flag status for its quality and upkeep, and recent plans include the installation of an award-winning sensory garden, enhancing its appeal for visitors of all ages. With its blend of heritage, recreation, and biodiversity, Victoria Park remains a vital urban oasis and a testament to Edinburgh’s commitment to accessible public spaces.
