St Andrews Cycle Path

9.32 miles (15 km)

Ordnance Survey Map Open Streetmap This nice ride around St Andrews uses the signed National Cycle Network Route 1 to create a circular route through the surrounding countryside. The route runs for just over 9 miles with a flat section at the start before some moderate climbs on the return leg.
You start of on the western side of the town, near to the bus station. From here you can pick up a traffic free path heading north west along the A91. The path runs along the A91 and the Eden Estuary to Edenside and Guardbridge, crossing the River Eden on the way.
After exploring the riverside village the route heads south to Kincaple and Strathkinnessm on a country lane. Here you join up again with NCN Route 1 which will guide you back into St Andrews.
If you would like to continue your cycling in the area then you could try the Dundee to St Andrews or Kirkcaldy to St Andrews routes.
