Overview

This is a very pleasant summer walk taking in a lovely stretch of East Lothian coastline from Yellow Craig to Gullane. We walk along beaches, rocks and paths through sand dunes. From Gullane beach we pass through the impressive village of Gullane with it’s large villas and golf courses, before joining a section of the John Muir Way to walk back via the historic and picturesque village of Dirleton to our start point.
