Based in the Scottish Borders, Eildon Ramblers is a friendlywalking group for people of all ages. We offer year-round walks to suit avariety of tastes.
The walk starts along the riverside on field tracks towards the village of Nisbet. Thereafter we walk half a mile on a quiet stretch of road. Then it’s an uphill climb along a beech tree avenue, through woodland paths and open hillside, leading to the Waterloo Monument.
Lunch on the hill top if weather allows. Returning down hill to a quiet stretch of road leading to the Borders Abby’s Way track this takes us through woodland back to start.
Splendid views on a good day.
Will be wet and muddy in places. Walking poles advised along with sturdy boots.
Two refreshment stops.
Circular walk, grade B, leisurely pace. Hiking boots and poles are recommended.
