Overview

We will leave the car park and cross with care, to enter the Philiphaugh Estate by the white gate. There is a wee bit of an incline up to the Estate Office.

Take a left down the road to meet the main road. Walk the short distance along the roadside, cross the road and take the path to the meeting of the waters.

Lovely walk along the riverside, watching for tree routes until we come to the edge of Selkirk. Walk back along the tar path, pass the lade to come back to car park.

There will be a snack stop and drinks stops as required.
