Overview

Join us on a winter walk with fabulous views across the Firth of Forth. Our route along part of the John Muir Way follows the coastline around the perimeter of Dalmeny Park before turning inland through parkland to the village of Dalmeny. We will visit the 12th century St Cuthbert's church before descending into  South Queensferry, named the most beautiful town in Scotland following a 2025 Telegraph study of 1,250 towns across the UK.
