Aberdour Walk

"The Seaside Town of Aberdour & Burntisland"

10am – 3pm

EVENT OVERVIEW

Aberdour is a popular and attractive village on the north shore of the Firth of Forth, looking south to the Island of Inchcolm and its Abbey, and to Leith and Edinburgh beyond.

The town has two beautiful award-winning beaches, one of Scotland’s oldest still-standing castles, a pier and a good choice of traditional shops. The origins of the village lie with its harbour, where the Dour Burn enters the River Forth. For much of its history Aberdour was two villages: Wester Aberdour and Easter Aberdour, one either side of the Burn.

We will have the option of first going to Burntisland then making our way back to Aberdour via the coastal path. After our strolls we will meet at a cafe for lunch or bring our own picnics.

Terrain: Muddy Paths

ABOUT Carer Walks

Care for Carers runs a series of walks throughout the year, helping carers to get a short break from their caring roles. We travel through the quiet, peaceful parks and green spaces in and around Edinburgh, sometimes further afield, finding out a little more about our surroundings and one another.

The expected terrain is indicated beside each walk, but sturdy shoes and weatherproof clothing are always essential. Minibus transport is provided where appropriate.

Both carers and former carers are welcome to attend. Please contact us in advance to reserve a place on a particular walk.

Further details on the Carer Walks programme can be found here.
