The Scottish Borders is unquestionably one of the most beautiful parts of the UK, and we've got a great way for you to get out into the hills and see a bit more of it!
The Borders Abbeys Walks is a route of footpaths linking the four ruined Border Abbey towns of Kelso, Jedburgh, Melrose and Dryburgh, plus the historic towns of Hawick and Selkirk.
We're breaking it down into 5 sections over 5 Sundays; you can join us on as many
[or as few] of the stages as you like. You'll join members of the Callum's Trust Team who will guide you along the beautiful routes and you'll take in the most spectacular scenery the Borders has to offer.
Round up your friends, dust off the walking boots, fish out your best sun hat and brush up your banter and chit chat. Register now and we'll see you there!
All we ask is that you raise a minimum of £50 sponsorship for Callum's Trust. Get in touch and we will send you out a registration pack with all the info you need to get going. A Family entry is also available, so round up 'the troops' and get everyone involved!
As an extra incentive, Callum's Trust is putting on an evening of folk and acoustic music on Sunday 26 September at the Wynd Theatre in Melrose; it's free entry for all participants. Callum's Trust favourite Alan Windram is already confirmed on the bill!
