1,400 km through Scotland: on the road on the North Sea Coast Cycle Route.
The North Sea Coast Cycle Route runs for almost 6,000 km through six states along the coast of the North Sea, a good 1,400 of which lead through Scotland alone. Anyone who travels along this route will gain a unique and varied insight into the country in the north of Great Britain.

The new cycling guide "Scotland: North Sea Coast Cycle Route" from Conrad Stein Verlag provides directions for the entire route. From the English town of Berwick upon-Tweed, cyclists first head inland to the capital city of Edinburgh, then via Dundee to the coast and on to Aberdeen. From there, the route leads to Banff and Inverness, the capital of the Highlands, and finally the Shetland and Orkney Islands await. On the way, you get to see all of Scotland's landscapes: the often rugged coastline, the vast upland moors of the Highlands, wide meadows and fields in the county of Caithness, and barren beauty on the Shetland Islands. In a practical format, Edith Kreutner's cycling guide provides accurate information on the route and lists nearby accommodation, inns and workshops along the way. In addition to the sights along the way, worthwhile side trips are also described. The first section contains general information on the country and its people and practical tips on topics such as travel, climate and time differences. The main section contains an overview of the stages and sketch maps to make planning the route easier. A small phrasebook with the most important English vocabulary for cyclists rounds off the travel guide.
