South Queensferry to Musselburgh via Hound Point, Cramond, Granton, Leith, Portobello.
Woodland walk along the John Muir Way. Through the grounds of the Dalmeny Estate then inland for Cramond Bridge and back down a riverside path for Cramond. Streets skirting Edinburgh via Granton Harbour and the Port of Leith. Portobello promenade. Golf courses - lots of them.
John Muir Way
A lovely woodland walk and cycleway starts the day on the John Muir Way and ducks inland through the Dalmeny Estate for a brief road walk before heading riverside to Cramond. It is then streets around the suburbs of Edinburgh with Granton Harbour and the redeveloped Port of Leith. Portobello is clearly a revamped and quite trendy little place for a promenade stroll with a plethora of golf courses to skirt on the way to Musselburgh.
My Rank **
