The Edinburgh promenade is on the banks of the Firth of Forth and stretches 17 km from Granton to Joppa. The promenade's design code was developed in 2008 and shows the phases and nodes for development, which includes
- bins
- signage
- benches
- public art.
The first two sections of the promenade were complete in 2009 and 2011. The complete section of just under 4 km is ideal for a short
- run
- walk
- bike ride.
On your way you can also see the brass rubbings trail at Granton and Silverknowes, designed by children from local schools. See if you can find them all.
