Overview

Meet at at Kingsmeadows Car Park at 9.30 am and car-share to the old public toilets on the Meldons Road, between Eddleston and the A72 Glasgow Road. The walk is in Harehope Forest and surrounding areas, on forest roads, tracks and paths. One long steady uphill stretch, one awkward gate, muddy after rain. Lots of archaeology!
