OverviewAbout this route

Cross bridge in Perth on Bike Route 77 and then follow quiet roads, riverside tracks and core paths. A bit hilly at first, up to 145 metres outside Perth, and then flat all the way with lovely views over the River Tay to Dundee and the famous railway bridge. Plenty of accommodation, pubs etc in Dundee.

Special Report. Avoid the dangerous rush, swamp and muddy areas on side of the Tay south of St Madoes and Errol.

From Dundee cross the road bridge onto Fife Coastal Path until heading inland along quiet roads and pedestrian walkways to St Andrews.

This is the 7th and final section of St Columba's Way, from Iona to St Andrews (website:http://www.thewayofstandrews.com)

    Guardbridge. The village derives its name from this 15th-century six-arched bridge over the Eden and is the site of the last hostel – or “gare” from the French word for station - where many pilgrims stayed before setting off on the final three miles (5 km) to St Andrews and the great cathedral holding the relics of St Andrew.
