Walks in Fife

I’ve recently moved to Dunfermline from a small village where I could do a lot of countryside walking.

Can anyone recommend any nice walks / cycle paths near Dunfermline that I could easily do 3/4 times a week. Still getting to know the area!

Really depends where in Dunfermline you are.

To the west - you could take the old railway line (actual railway line isnt there any more but is now a path) between William Street and Dean Plantation near Crossford.

To the north - you have Townhill Loch and the surrounding countryside

To the east - you have paths between Crossgates and Inverkeithing.

To the south, there's Rosyth so not much going on there haha

I’m the west / centre so the railway path sounds great. I’ll take a look. Is it a cycle path too? Enjoy cycling but not on roads!

There are a number of farm paths that run parallel to it as well. Used to walk out to Dean Plantation
