'Dunbar is the perfect location for walkers of all ages and skills, offering a great variety of landscapes for walking, with the Lammermuir Hills, a coast of beaches and cliffs and an expanse of arable farmland in between. Many of the paths go to, or pass vantage points offering fantastic views of the surrounding rolling landscape. Amongst the features are many hidden gems - river valleys, woodland, secret bays and historic sites.'
