Path can be a little rough. Definitely do able on 80mm wheels but I'd recommend 110mm. Drylaw Skatepark was a nice wee rest stop.
Union canal a bit of road if your feeling brave. Some rough paths from Linlithgow bridge back uphill to the canal. Aqua duct is scary.
Surfaces inconsistent and path a little narrow, not quite getting a full stride and almost stop every time you have to pass someone
Avoiding the current roadworks at Cadgers Brae. Stop at Beancross farm as the end is just to take me back to Polmont

This is skating on some of the new paths by the castle which go into the Raploch and Kildean Business park. Transitions across the roads are horrible but the new paths are lovely.
One of the best locations in the Falkirk area to skate. Smooth paths and you can do as many laps as you want!! There is a steep hill coming back down to the road though so watch out!!
All on main road with reasonable surfaces. Views were amazing, very little traffic and a "way out there feel" to the skating. The bit on the B road north to Daliburgh is lovely.
Smooth, slightly rough and some really rough stuff but lovely route through the heart of Edinburgh. Can easily be extended by heading off some of the adjoining paths and go explore!!
Adventure just about covers this!! There are ups, there are down's, some of the tar is rubbish whilst some is super smooth. All on single tracks roads so take car with passing cars.
This has been recently resurfaced and it is smooth as hell giving lovely skating. Kirkintilloch to Lennoxtown and back is approx 10k.
Park at the Denny Centre and one cycle path goes west whilst the other goes east. On the west path the tar becomes rough just after the M876 underpass.
This trail explores the northern end of the Helix park up around the Langees woods area. Fantastic tar throughout.
Fantastic skate along the river side at Bo'ness past the Kenneil railway on some superb smooth tar. There is a 30m walk past the yacht club on gravel in the middle of the route.
Intermediate skate with some hills and rough surfaces. The route starts and finishes in Polmont because I live there. Check the picture to make it into a loop.
There is a car park at the bridge itself and then basically pick your path as they go off in all directions. Some are narrow with others are wider and the section around Camelon running track is superb.
I have only done about 6 miles of the route but I know it goes for over 14 miles!! Absolute cracker of a path which is very smooth and hilly in places to get some good speed on the descents. The section from Caldercruix ...
Really good smooth surface through the fields and onwards through the housing estate by Cotland Drive.
I have only ever done this trail at night so no idea what it is like in the day!! Lovely to skate in the dark though following the river.
This is a cracking route on the old railway line. Surface is superb, skating through tunnels is awesome and some bloody big hills and hairpin bends. Proper skating in the mountains feeling.
One of the best places in central scotland to skate. Park at the Falkirk Stadium and basically follow your nose!!
Surfaces ranged from smooth to reasonable to speed bumps to look at me I'm riding a jack hammer!! Some of the path near the trees was also slimey as hell.
This starts at the old Longannet Power station and follows the B road to Culross on a segregated cycle path. Undulating until you reach Culross itself and then you get a 1 mile dead straight section on really good tar. ...
Segregated cyclepath which follows the A901 on really good tar with stunning views oif the Ochils hills.
This is dead straight and runs for 11 miles on the old railway. The surface is variable and best done on big whheled skates.
super smooths paths, very flat. Ensure you take the detour around the houses as this cuts out light gravel path. Ensure you take the route through the FRONT of royal armouries as this cuts out a potentially dangerous gro...
A great hint to help you choose your outdoor gear and clothing!
