Leithen Water Swimming Spot

Highlight • River

After a hot and dusty session at Golfie, this is a great place to strip down and plunge into the fresh Leithen Water! Take care on the slippery concrete and wade down into the waist-deep water over the edge of the cascade.

There's a couple of rough parking spaces here too, so if you're travelling to this spot to ride you can always start and finish here.

Innerleithen Golf Club

Highlight • Structure

The B709 dissects the stunning tree-lined Innerleithen golf club which is a sight well worth seeing and a great reward after the earlier climb and then descent on the same road (if you've come from the north).
