Walking & Wheeling
Aberdour Castle is just a 5-minute walk from the train station and nearby bus stops, including one conveniently located at Station Place, right by the station entrance. From the train station car park, you can either: walk to the main road and turn left to follow the drive to the castle, or turn left immediately, follow the path alongside the railway, and climb the steps - the castle entrance will be on your right.
The Fife Coastal Path passes through the village and the castle can easily be reached with a short detour from this route by continuing along the High Street.
