St Andrews to Dundee

Cycling Scotland #2. Falkland to Dundee

In St Andrews National Cycling Route 1 merged with EuroVelo Cycling Route and North Sea Cycling Route, which makes life easier in terms of navigation.


Pleasant parts of the route out of traffic, through military base and Tentsmuir National Nature Reserve with landmarks of Romans, Picts and Vikings. Ice House is one of them.

The bridge from St Andrews to Dundee is the dream of cyclist – a long and gentle down all the way. Just off the bridge is another dream – buffet, eat as much as you can for 7 f .  Indian cuisine with something new, Savayan – sweet macaroni cooked in milk, a few plates of which I eat while enjoyed wifi.
