East Linton to Dunbar
Recommended: Stunning views of the Bass Rock and the North Sea. A gorgeous, flat and easy route on very well-surfaced paths, almost entirely off-road. Passes through farmland, woodland and the Tyne estuary and with a dramatic final clifftop approach to Dunbar along the edge of the golf course and beach. Follows the John Muir Way. Plenty of bird life along the Tyne estuary; look out for seals in Dunbar harbour, and emus and llamas at the back of East Links Family Park.
Coastal: three fifths along the coast.
Time: 5h (3h30 walking, 1h30 lunch)
End-of-walk reward: Ice cream may await on Dunbar High Street.
