The 34-km path passes by sandy beaches, conservation areas, and the Craigleith Heritage Depot, a historic railway station built in the 1870s. 

Each spring, the area surrounding the depot bursts into bloom with vibrant lilacs, and you can explore a dreamy tunnel of these purple flowers.

Lilacs typically blossom in late May, so if you live in the area, it's worth adding to your spring bucket list.
