Starting point




Midlothian
EH12 5XG

From Balgreen tram stop we'll make our way through the Meadows, the Innocent Tunnel, Craigmillar and Little France parks Danderhall and along to the Straiton nature reserve before continuing to Roslin.
We'll stop near Dolly's where we can either get a takeaway cuppa or bring our own to sit on the grassy area/benches.
Then we'll partly retrace our outward route, picking up route 61 for a while, then mostly on roads from Gilmerton to Sciennes, back to the Meadows and retracing our outward route at the Leamington Lift Bridge to Balgreen tram stop

Route rating

5 stars (1) Reviews

A ride our to the amazing Roslin Chapel

A mix of shared paths, quiet roads, segregated cycle lanes, some short gravelly bits but nothing major

Well stop periodically for breathers, to hydrate and to take photos. A picnic/cafe stop

Helmets, spare inner tunes, tools suitable for your bike, card/cash, a plan B for getting home in case you have to leave the ride. A seat mat

We never leave anyone behind
