Overview

This walk takes us back to the beginning of all our recent walks along the Fife Coastal Path: we walk under the beautiful ironwork archway beside the bridge to head west along a path which is largely off-road, but does include a few stretches of pavement walking. Beautiful views - there is one particular spot where we can watch the birds, so you might want to bring binoculars. Towards the end of the walk we pass through Culross, one of the most beautiful villages on the coastal path. .

If you would like to join us, please contact the Walk Leader to book a place in advance, noting that for some walks places may be limited. Please advise the walk leader of any issue that may
affect your ability to complete the walk, if you intend to travel independently to the start of the walk, and/or if you are willing to drive/car share from the meeting point.
Also, if you have one, please remember to bring your ICE card with you; if not, a note of your proposed emergency contact name and number will be required in case of emergency.
Most of this part of the coastal path is paved or otherwise in good condition, so it should not be muddy. 
Please note that, unfortunately, dogs cannot be accommodated on our walks, except for guide dogs who will be welcome.
