We will follow the Black Path towards Galafoot and then onto Lindean via Boleside joining the A7 cycle path. In Selkirk we will head towards Ettrick Bridge and then on towards The Bowhill Estate, on quiet country roads, where we will stop at Newark Tower for photos and to have a drink and snacks if required. We will then head back towards Selkirk along the A708, stopping at the Waterwheel cafe for coffee and a bite. Back then to Selkirk and Tweedbank, retracing our outward route along Boleside etc.
