Pokemon Nests

Fancy a walk? Why not make the most of it and visit a Pokemon Nest.
"Nests" are spawn points where the same Pokemon pop up regularly and in number. While spawn points can be anywhere, nests tend to be around PokeStops or Gyms — or several PokeStops and Gyms within a park or similar natural reserve. Also, while things like water spawns tend to stay the same, month after month, nest migrate every two weeks
Here are some of the best Pokemon nests in Edinburgh. Majority of Edinburgh Nest are also now available to view on our Edinburgh Map
