From mountbenger toll visited both areas. | robertphillips | 15/10/2023 |
Backpacking round from Innerleithen, parking in woodland car park just to N of bridge over the Tweed. Joined Southern Upland way at Traquair, then diverted to Blake Muir. Continued to Deuchar Law then WSW to find forest ride (start of originally planned path blocked by row of felled trees) heading to Bught Rig and down to use footbridge across Douglas Burn near bottom of Ritty Cleuch (not shown on map). Climbed curving ridge to Deepslack Knowe. Continued W over rough ground to reach beallach S of Black Law and continued to Conscleuch Head and Broomy Law. Contoured round to Henderland Hill and descended E to Old Kirkstead, crossing Kirkstead Burn with footbidge. Followed track through Dryhope (farm) to reach Southern Upland Way. Diverted to climb Ward Law, and descended NNE to rejoin the Way. Crossed the bridge at Craighope and climbed Craig Hill N Top. Contunued by fence N to rejoin the Way and reverse outward route. Rain for much of route and misty at times. | RobertP | 07/10/2023 |
