THE FORTH BRIDGES

The Forth Bridges, connecting Fife & Edinburgh since 1890, 1964 & 2017. Official
website for the Queensferry Crossing, the Forth Road Bridge and the Forth Bridge
- Scotland's famous three bridges spanning three centuries.
Home


THREE BRIDGES SPANNING THREE CENTURIES

Iconic, historic and magnificent, Scotland’s Forth Bridges are a wonder of the
modern world and one of Scotland's most recognisable locations.

Towering side by side over the Firth of Forth, these structures represent the
pinnacle of engineering across three centuries.

The oldest of the bridges, The Forth Bridge, is now a designated UNESCO World
Heritage Site of unique global significance and interest. 

Bridging the historic settlements of North and South Queensferry, the bridges
are set in an area that has history, beauty, wildlife and community spirit in
abundance. 

Slow down the pace and stay a wee while to soak up the enormity of these
gargantuan structures and explore the heritage-rich local area. 

You're guaranteed a warm welcome and good old-fashioned Scottish hospitality.

CRUISE VISITORS

YOUR ESSENTIAL GUIDE

Queensferry may be just over 15 minutes by train from the centre of Edinburgh
but it feels like a typical east coast fishing village.

Spend a while here to ‘get under the skin’ of everyday life in a historic
Scottish community. There’s plenty to see and do and you can easily explore on
foot for a relaxed alternative to the shuttle bus.

Take a look at our itineraries and essential information to make the most of
your time in this charming wee town and UNESCO World Heritage Site.
