Surveys
We are working to build-up a picture of what routes look like. To do that we are asking volunteers to survey routes so that we can communicate features, obstacles and challenges that may make a route desirable or not.
Slow Ways surveyors are asked to complete some basic online training, but they are not vetted. If you are dependent on the survey information being correct in order to complete a route, we recommend that you think critically about the information provided. You may also wish to wait until more than one survey has been completed.
Help people know more about this route by volunteering to submit a survey.

29 Mar 2024It's very epic to walk across the Forth Bridge - it takes about an hour and half - with incredible views and much vertigo. On the otherside it is an anti-climatic walk along a busy motorway and over a hill into Inverkeithling. It's very straightforward with good paths and would be easy to cycle it too.

29 Mar 2024The windy walk over the bridge is brilliant, with big wide views over the sea in both directions either side, and the occasional train rattling by on the adjacent bridge. Once you're out onto the either side, it's a bit of a weird walk to Inverkeithing along a motorway. But it is walkable and I think the only adjoining route to get to the town.

11 Mar 2024The walk over the bridge is quite epic! You get an amazing view over the water and the main Forth Bridge. I did this route from Queensferry into Inverkeithing. You have to use your common sense getting onto the walking bridge (i.e. veering off the Slow Way path slightly) and adjust according to road closures, which might mean (as it did for us) walking under the under path to get to the other side of the bridge. Once your onto the other of the bridge, you do walk along a busy road for a shortish stretch of time - but there's no safety issues here.

22 Feb 2023Fortunately the only route is a good one. On windy days you need to hold onto your hat.
Also worth a detour on the path around Cruickness.

05 Nov 2022It's a simple walk using the Forth Road Bridge. Keep your eyes open for any footpath closures as you don't always use the most direct East footpath with excellent views to the Forth Bridge and sometimes have to cross or use the underpass stairs to access the West footpath which has an equally stunning view of the Queensferry Crossing. Once in Queensferry there is an abundance of shops, cafes' restaurants and pubs to while away an hour or two before heading back over the bridge or catching a train from Dalmeny or a bus.

04 Aug 2021Easy walk, spectacular views from Forth Road Bridge, can be windy. Mostly shared bike and walkway, wheelchair accessible. Possible return by train between Inverkeithing and Dalmeny/Edinburgh.
