Up and down to Hownam and Oxnam

We will head out of Kelso on the Morebattle road and turn left in to Linton Burnfoot. From there we head to Hownam and will eventually cross Dere Street on our way to Oxnam. We head back to Kelso past Crailing Hall and the old Teviot Smokery, crossing over the foot bridge heading for Roxburgh. We arrive back in Kelso passing by Springwood Showground. Bring plenty snacks and water to last you for 40 miles.

A hilly ride from Kelso into the Hownam and Oxnam Valleys. Bring your hill legs!

Generally quite country roads although we will join the Kelso to Jedburgh road for a few minutes to take us.

No planned coffee stops as this ride doesn’t go past any cafes. We’ll stop plenty of times for you to have a drink, munch on snacks and admire the amazing views! We can go for a late lunch on our return to Kelso.

Helmets are essential. Please bring spare inner tubes and any tools specific to your bike. E-bikes must be fully charged and able to cover 40 hilly miles as this is a very rural cycle in parts.

We never leave anyone behind
