Route rating

0 stars (0) Reviews

A route along the canal path, making use of the new Roseburn to (almost) the Union Canal link, to South Gyle, returning on quiet roads and cycle paths back to Craigleith.

The route is a mix of cycle and shared use paths, with an early section of the route by the canal. A few short sections are on quiet roads and main roads will crossed at pedestrian crossings.

The coffee stop will be at Patina Bakery, Edinburgh Park.

Helmets are strongly advised, wear clothing appropriate for the weather and it's always a good idea to bring waterproofs. Also bring a means of payment if you wish to buy a refreshment at the stop, bring spare inner tubes should the unthinkable happen & a bike lock if you have one.

We never leave anyone behind
