A-Z of WALKS and CATEGORIES
South of Scotland Countryside Trails
'A 350km network of routes developed specifically for horse-riders and walkers, linked to quality assured horse and rider accommodation ... SOSCT routes are clearly waymarked, most of the gates are easy to open (for riders that means without dismounting), and the drainage and other improvements which have been undertaken throughout allow you to walk or ride these routes with confidence that you won’t get stuck in a bog or have to turn back when you find your way blocked.'
The British Horse Society
'Walkers can enjoy the SoSCT network throughout the year, and many of the routes around West Linton, Peebles and Innerleithen, the forest paths and tracks in Cardrona, Cademuir, Glentress and Ae Forests, and disused railway lines such as the Waverley Way are suitable for anyone to walk, cycle or ride at any time of year, whatever the weather ... May to September is the best time of year to enjoy the Cheviots and other routes on higher and more exposed ground. The days are long, countryside at its best, weather (usually!) at its kindest and there is less risk of disturbing lambing or other critical farm activities than during winter or spring.'
