EH3 9PD

An easygoing ride taking in the Meadows, Duddingston Village and the Figgate Park which is a haven for wildlife. We'll make a leisurely loop around the park before returning to Duddingston by a different route where we will visit Dr Neils Garden, stopping for refreshments and with time to explore this lovely space.

Leaving the garden we'll make our way to the Innocent Railway path and tunnel, returning to our starting point via Bruntsfield.

This ride is mostly on quiet roads and paths with a few short sections which may be busier or where we have to cross at traffic lights. Almost all tarmac with a short section on hard-packed gravel.

We'll stop periodically to take a breather and enjoy the views.

Please bring water and a snack and have clothing suitable for the weather, also card/cash if you want to purchase anything at our cafe stop.

Helmets are highly recommended. If possible, please carry at least one spare inner tube and a pump for your bike. Have a means of getting home with your bike in case of mechanical failure.

We never leave anyone behind!
