Dundee

Dundee Eurowalk

Free self-guided online walking tour of Dundee. Discover some of the historic European links in this city that overlooks the River Tay.

Visit our website on your mobile device, follow the directions given for the route round the town, tour the main landmarks and learn about their many historic and contemporary associations with other parts of Europe. 

The 3 to 4 km walk has a starting point at the International Submarine Memorial on Victoria Dock and ends at the Howff Cemetery in the town centre.

On the walk you will explore:

  • Dundee's long history of seafaring and trading links with the European continent
  • Dundee's twin towns including probably the oldest continuing twin-city link between Dundee and Orléans in France
  • Dundee's connection with a famous "founding father of Europe"
  • An editor of the Dandy who became one of the first two UK commissioners to the European Economic Community (the EEC)
  • How a Spanish ship sheltering from a storm led to Dundee having a long history of marmalade production!
  • And much more!

The entire walk is approximately 3 or 4 kilometres long. There will be some cobbles, pavements and steps on the route but it does not have many uphill or downhill sections. Be aware that there is open water at the Victoria Dock and overlooking the River Tay so please ensure all attendees are aware of this and take precautions. It is possible to commence the tour at any point to suit your circumstances.

Walk at your own pace, enjoy the surroundings and stop for refreshments along the route.

[Please note that this self-guided tour, entirely along public footpaths, is undertaken at your own risk.]
