Tucked away in a residential development, the pontoon on Lochend Loch is one of my personal favourite spots in Edinburgh, with beautiful views of Arthur's Seat peeking out over the trees submerged in the Loch. Great for jogs and families (there's a playground) or as a stop on your way down to Leith.
