Forth To Firth Canal Pathway - Alternative Coast To Coast Route

Alternative Coast To Coast Route

Sustrans have devised an alternative coast to coast route. This starts at Gourock on the Firth of Clyde and then goes to Bells Bridge in Glasgow, via Paisley. It then goes to Edinburgh via Airdrie, the Bathgate Railway Path, the Water of Leith Walkway and the Union Canal towpath. This route is longer at 171 miles (275 km) and only 98 miles (158 km) of the path are off road.
