Forth and Clyde Canal from Clydebank to Dalmuir




The Firth to Forth canal pathway runs from
 the Firth of Clyde to the Firth of Forth
and is a 106km ( 66.5 mile ) long footpath and cycleway
that runs across Scotland,
between Bowling to the west of Glasgow
 and Lochrin Basin ( Edinburgh Quay ) in Edinburgh.

The path runs on the towpaths
of the Forth & Clyde and Union Canals
and is entirely off road.

 The path is well maintained with a good surface.
