Borders Abbey Way

As this is a circular route it is perceived that many walkers may choose to stay in one location and use transport to radiate out to the start and finish points along the route. In general the reception on mobile phones is good, but you are advised that reliance on them for emergency use is not guaranteed. You should always leave a message with someone that knows your plans and can raise the alarm if you do not arrive as scheduled. The whole time you see and follow remains of old dry stone wall which is really neat. Trail markers were a little difficult to follow at times but that only added to the adventure. It is nice that it ends and starts in towns, all in which have historic remains of old Abbeys.
