Climate Detectives: Heriot-Watt Family Trail

    Framed by greenery and nature, Heriot-Watt’s Edinburgh campus is brimming with intriguing facts about research into our climate’s history.

    On this 3km interactive walk of the picturesque grounds you’ll find out how tiny popcorn-like fossils have made a huge impact in unravelling past climate change. The trial is self-guided with interactive posters with QR codes to help you navigate your way, so be sure to have your smartphone fully charged. We’ll even have some word-jumbles for the little ones to solve!
