The routes use mostly quiet, unclassified or B class roads, although the yellow trail uses two miles of relatively busy A class road as a return route into the town. To avoid busier roads the trails head south of the River Tweed where the countryside is hillier with downhill runs, mixed woodlands and very peaceful.
Starting point
Starting from the Mayfield public car park (located on the north bank of the Tweed between the old and new bridges in Kelso).
