SIX walking trails designed to reflect the daily walking practice that many people adopted during lockdown will be revealed later this month.

An art project has been drawn up to “make a space in the community for reflection, remembrance, hope and healing”.

In East Lothian, led by artists Barbara Gardner-Rowell and Sophie Ferguson, the project takes the form of a mapped series of walks.

The routes take in Musselburgh, Port Seton, Haddington, Tranent, North Berwick and Spott.

Signs for each of the routes are being proposed, with half a dozen planning applications for advertising consent lodged with East Lothian Council.

A chance to enjoy the trails will be offered during Walkfest, which gets under way later this month.

The first walk leaves Tranent’s Loch Centre at 10am on August 24.

The six-kilometre circular route, which takes in Polson Park, Church Street and Sandersons Wynd, is described as "a walk for reflection, hope and healing through urban areas, fields and parkland”.

A flat, coastal walk – measuring just under 4km - starting from Port Seton’s Wave Garden and ending at Prestonpans is planned for 11am on August 26.

Two days later, there is a chance to enjoy a 1.9km circular walk at Levenhall Links, at Musselburgh, from 2pm.

The following day, walkers are to meet at Haddington’s Nungate Bridge, next to the Blether Bench.

The 3km circular walk, which leaves at 11am, hugs the River Tyne while also visiting Court Street and the rear of Knox Academy.

Then, on August 31, visitors to North Berwick will be offering a 2km walk “along a coastal path with stunning views, skirting The Glen golf course”.

The walk sets off at 11.30am from Haugh top car park.

Finally, “stunning panoramic views across the Firth of Forth”, are offered through a circular route starting from Spott Village Hall at 2pm on September 1.

The 2.8km walk heads north of the village before returning to its starting point.
