Why walk the Fife Coastal Path?

Why not?

Day 1 – Kincardine to Inverkeithing

Ok, so I got lost! For those of you who know me I’m sure this is no surprise:-) It all started so well. It didn’t rain; I met a lovely wee dog called Alf who was really keen on getting his photo taken (couldn’t keep his tongue in his mouth though:-( ): and some moreContinue reading “Day 1 – Kincardine to Inverkeithing”

Day 2 – Inverkeithing to Dysart

I must admit I was a bit confused this morning when I was eating my porridge but that’s probably not unusual:-) You see, when I decided to do this walk, I planned each day so that they would be around 16 miles each to split the whole walk over 6/7 days. I used the OfficialContinue reading “Day 2 – Inverkeithing to Dysart”

Day 3 – Dysart to St. Monans

What a lovely day today has been! Like summer!:-) As you can see from the Dysart clock above (did you know it was built in 1576!) I left Dysart at around 9:30am. The sun was already shining and it was warm. The walk from Dysart to West Wemyss is quite hilly with a few setsContinue reading “Day 3 – Dysart to St. Monans”

Day 4 – St. Monans to Boarhills

I was woken this morning with a gentle knock at my door and when I opened it this lovely breakfast had been left for me – delicious! As I sat at my window eating my breakfast looking out at St. Monan’s harbour I didn’t want to leave! There’s lots to love in St. Monans: St.Continue reading “Day 4 – St. Monans to Boarhills”

Day 5 – Boarhills to Leuchars

Setting off from Boarhills there is a lot of long grass – very wet grass! As you can see my jeans and shoes were soaked – and that was only after 10 minutes! It had turned into a nice warm day though so I wasn’t worried. I knew I’d dry out once I was out ofContinue reading “Day 5 – Boarhills to Leuchars”

Day 6 – Leuchars to Newport-On-Tay

As you can see, today was very wet! Even in Summer a good waterproof jacket is a must – thank you to Gordon Balfour for mine:-) I started the day at Earlshall Road, past a very nice house, and up the lane to Tentsmuir Forest. Tentsmuir Forest is lovely! A great place to go forContinue reading “Day 6 – Leuchars to Newport-On-Tay”

Day 7 – Newport-On-Tay to Newburgh

My final day had arrived! I was both looking forward to the end and not wanting it to end. As I came down the hill from my B&B the house above was the first house I came to, looking out over the River Tay – isn’t it lovely?! If you fancy a house looking outContinue reading “Day 7 – Newport-On-Tay to Newburgh”
