Overview

This is a leisurely walk alongside the Tweed via Boleside towards the Old Tweed Bridge. After a refreshment stop we cross to the far bank and return via Faldonside and the Abbotsford Estate. Underfoot conditions are generally good but there is some rough terrain (tree roots etc) and the Boleside path is shared with vehicles & cyclists.
