Funding for cycling will be spent on improving the network of cycle paths across Scotland and providing training for schoolchildren.
Plans for the £6 million funding for cycling allocated in the recently announced 2013/14 Budget were outlined by Transport Minister Keith Brown.
The National Cycle Network will be enhanced and local authorities will be given cash to improve cycling infrastructure on smaller roads, he said.
