Roseburn Path Stone Bridge

Highlight • Trail

The Roseburn Path is probably the best-known of the North Edinburgh routes, mainly because it forms part of NCN 1, which links the capital with the north of Scotland. It connects with the Telford Path at Craigleith, from where you can get to the large Sainsbury's supermarket and the Western General Hospital. Heading south, the path passes under Queensferry Road and Ravelston Dykes, to reach Haymarket Yards and Russell Road.

Burgess and Bruntsfield Golf Path

Highlight (Segment) • Cycleway

Nice path connecting 2 sections of Barnton Avenue. Rather narrow on the west side and generally shared with pedestrians, take Gamekeeper's Road instead if you're in a hurry.

Highlight • Cycleway

Forth Road Bridge Cycle Path

Highlight • Monument

The impressive suspension bridge is over two kilometers long and is a listed building. As a cyclist, you have your own bicycle lane at your disposal, which makes cycling on the bridge a highlight. Left and right you have not only a great view of the Firth of Forth, but also on the two parallel bridges Queensferry Crossing and the railway bridge.
