Overview

Meeting at Buchanan Bus Station Stance 4 we'll take the 10:15 am Stagecoach X27 to Kincardine High Street then begin walking from the start of the Fife Coastal Path to Culross (toilet stop). We'll then continue on to walk around the Preston Island promontory sitting in Torry Bay. There are several picnic spots where we can stop for coffee or lunch, and also discover the local history of salt planning. On the return to Culross we'll stop at the community owned Red Lion Pub for refreshments before walking back to Kincardine. There will be time to explore the pretty village of Culross for those who wish to do so. We'll plan  to return to Glasgow by the 16:10 Stagecoach X27, arriving around 17:00 (depends on traffic conditions and the amount of time the group wish to spend in Culross).  A moderate circular walk of about 9 miles on minor roads and shared paths.
