John Muir Way Guidebook

Description

This is a definitive guidebook to the John Muir Way that runs for 134 miles (215 km) coast-to-coast across central Scotland. It starts at Helensburgh on the Clyde and finishes on the east coast at Dunbar with its ruined castle and John Muir's birthplace. The John Muir Way is suitable for cyclists as for walkers, and it can be tackled as a coast-to-coast expedition or in sections - ten for walkers or five for cyclists.

The appeal of the John Muir Way ranges from the Rennie Mackintosh architecture of Helensburgh through to the scenic grandeur of Loch Lomond. It passes along two famous canals, the amazing Falkirk Wheel, the Roman Antonine Wall, Linlithgow Palace, Blackness Castle, the Forth Bridge, and Edinburgh. It finishes on the wide coastal expanses of East Lothian, at Dunbar with its ruined castle and John Muir's birthplace.
