    Fife Coastal Path

    Scotland · Eastern Scotland
    Rolling

    A 138km trail following the entire coastline of the Kingdom of Fife from Kincardine on the Forth to Newburgh on the Tay. The route passes through the historic fishing villages of the East Neuk, the university town of St Andrews, and along rocky shorelines, sandy bays, and clifftop paths. Expect good infrastructure with regular towns and villages, making this an accessible coastal walk. Wildlife includes seabirds, seals, and dolphins in the Firth of Tay. The East Neuk section between Elie and Crail is a particular highlight.
