Sortie rapide à vélo de Édimbourg à Seafield

This relaxed 4 km ride takes you from the historic heart of Edinburgh—famous for its stunning castle, medieval Old Town, and bustling Royal Mile—out to the coastal suburb of Seafield. With only a gentle ascent and then a nice descent toward sea level (so your legs will thank you), this is an easygoing journey perfect for a brief escape from city buzz.

You’ll start on mostly quiet roads and cycleways, weaving through city neighborhoods before catching a whiff of salty sea air as you approach Seafield, an area best known for its long-standing cemetery, peaceful promenade, and the Firth of Forth views. The route is almost entirely paved, making for smooth pedaling all the way, and you’ll get a nice blend of city scenery and a glimpse of Edinburgh’s lesser-known coastline. Great for a chill afternoon ride, a bit of sightseeing, or a scenic detour to the beach!
