25 Cycle Routes is a new series from HMSO Scotland. Each route is specially selected for interest and enjoyment and has been cycled by the author. The maps are supported by information boxes which include: distance in miles and kilometres; start and finish points with Ordnance Survey references; type of terrain; and facilities en route. "Edinburgh and Lothian" describes off road routes mainly on tracks developed by The Regional Council, linked by road where necessary. The routes cover many different parts of this region, from reservoirs in the Moorfoot hills to the popular Beecraigs Country Park, historic Traprain Law and the Old Port of Leith.
