This Cicerone walking guidebook describes The Borders Abbeys Way - a 68 mile circuit in the Scottish Borders, taking in 4 of Britain's grandest ruined medieval abbeys of Melrose, Dryburgh, Kelso and Jedburgh.
The route begins and ends at Tweedbank, which is described over 6 stages, is as rich in history as it is in pastoral charm. It is relatively flat, so it is suitable for people with a moderate level of fitness.
For each stage there are clear route descriptions along with OS mapping extracts. Also included is information about the history of the Borders abbeys, the ever-intriguing Borders reivers, and the region's geology and agriculture. Invaluable practical information relating to accommodation, transport, mapping and public access is also included.
