Why not cycle along the shores of the Firth of Forth to the beautiful town of Musselburgh, which has plenty of amenities, as well as a fishing harbour and beach. There are lots of other great cycling routes in the area close to our camp site Edinburgh, including the closed road cycle path from Musselburgh to Penicuik, the route of the old Edinburgh to Peebles railway.
