Dog Walks in: Scottish Borders

The Scottish Borders

Journey through the picturesque and historic landscapes of the Scottish Borders, a region of rolling hills, tranquil river valleys, and ancient abbeys, offering a peaceful and rewarding experience for dog walkers. Bordering England, this area is steeped in history and natural beauty, perfect for those seeking gentle strolls or invigorating climbs.

Explore the iconic Eildon Hills near Melrose for breathtaking panoramic views, or enjoy a serene riverside amble along the famous River Tweed, known for its salmon and charming banks. Discover extensive walking trails within the Tweed Valley Forest Park (including areas like Glentress and Innerleithen), offering a mix of woodland paths and scenic viewpoints. You can also find peaceful routes connecting the magnificent Border Abbeys, allowing you to soak in centuries of history with your canine companion by your side.

The Scottish Borders provides a calming escape with its gentle contours and rich heritage. Remember to always follow the Scottish Outdoor Access Code, keeping your dog under close control, especially around livestock and wildlife, to protect the region's cherished farmlands and natural habitats.
