Overview

Starting out from Longiddry train station we join the John Muir Way. This is a scenic 13 mile coastal walk partly through dunes on good grassy paths. The route will take us through picturesque Aberlady and Gullane and the historic village of Direlton with its English style village green and castle. The scenery is delightful throughout and passes by some beautiful beaches. Our walk will finish in North Berwick which has a lovely little beach and harbour and there are pubs and cafes with some unique shops in the towns Main Street. From hear we’ll catch the train back to Edinburgh where we change for Glasgow.
