Walking
With stunning coastlines combined with the peace and tranquillity of the inland hills and paths - Fife has everything to offer both seasoned and novice walkers and ramblers.
Fife has an amazing coastline and the best way to explore it is by walking the Fife Coastal Path. This path, which currently stretches from the imposing Forth Bridge in the south, to the Tay Bridge in the north, gives access to over 150 kilometres of spectacular scenery, award winning beaches, natural landscapes, nature reserves, industrial and military heritage as well as many religious, archaeology and geology sites. Don't forget to drop into Fife's coastal centre at the Harbourmaster's House, Dysart.
A range of walking abilities is catered for, from the extremely level and easy to the more challenging rough single track cliff top walking - there is definitely something for everyone. The route is clearly way marked at appropriate points along the path, and is well served by public transport. Enhance your experience by visiting one of the many Welcome Ports along the route - a warm welcome awaits all who drop in.
With over 25 square mile of beautiful countryside, the rugged beauty of the Lomond Hills in central Fife continually delights walkers of all levels and abilities, while there are plenty of greenspace walks where you can discover the hidden gems of our towns and royal burghs.
