Very encouraging news from Scotland as the Borders trainline re-opens.

As well as connecting these communities with Edinburgh, the restored line offers car-free access to several hills and valleys in the beautiful Borders region. Car Free Walks has relatively few routes in the Borders, largely due to the limited public transport options. Here's hoping we will see a few more added to the website in the coming weeks...
