Help connect East Linton
Many Slow Ways have several route options. Some will be better than others, or good for different reasons.
Our goal is for each Slow Way to have at least one route that is verified and surveyed. To be verified – and get its snail badge – a route needs at least three positive reviews.
Give a hike and help get a for every one of East Linton’s Slow Ways.

Quite a dramatic approach to Dunbar along the edge of the golf course, well worth it....
Doug Bridgens
Good paths all the way, and easy to follow (John Muir Way signs). Mostly off the road, and still direct. A really nice section through the woods in the middle....

The section past the Tyne estuary is beautiful with plenty of bird life and a section past the woods at Hedderwick past the family farm....

Lovely flat walk, through fields/countryside, along riversides, and then beach and forest!...
Donal OS
The route follows the road bridge over the River Tyne ontoWhittinghame Drive (signed for golf course) , and then left (photo 1)after passing the cemetery onto another footbridge over the Tyne again and then right across some grass to follow path into fields(photo 2). It become signed as 'River Tyne path' from the Abbey Bridge (photo 3) as it is from East Linton....

On the walk you pass through farmland, woodlands, estuary and the town of Dunbar itself - making for a really interesting and varied route. Look out for the emus and llamas and other creatures as you pass along the back of East Links Family Park!...
rachgriff
The route takes you past some beautiful old mills, a nice horse, and the amazing Hailes castle - well worth a quick detour to the other side of the river to poke around the castle itself....

There is also a bus service between East Linton and Haddington, (Borders Buses 253 and East Coast Buses X7)....
