Cycling

East Lothian is a wonderful county for cycling - especially if you’re a bit of a novice or want to go out on a leisurely cycle with the family. It is mainly flat and not too hilly and the scenery is magnificent. If you are looking for more of a challenge, then follow the roads further inland where rolling countryside leads into the foothills of the Lammermuirs with wonderful views across the whole county.

East Lothian is compact too which makes it easier to visit many of the places of interest in one day. With quiet country lanes to explore, you can see for yourself the beautiful countryside on a bike and visit sites and attractions.

If off-road cycling is your thing, there are loads of great cycle trails to test your skills with exhilarating routes through the countryside.

Take a look below at a range of routes including family bike rides and for more information visit our Komoot site.

If you would like to hire a bike when visiting, Belhaven Bikes in Dunbar offer a range of bikes that can be delivered and collected.  Ezee Riders, situated outside North Berwick offer electric bike hire and guided tours exploring East Lothian's stunning beaches, countryside and hidden gems.
