Innerleithen

Less popular than Glentress. It used to be a black, not sure if it was downgraded to a red after trail repairs. Much like Glentress it’s pretty much an all up climb followed by an all down descent. The highlight is an extremely fast descent from ‘Minch Moor’ summit, with berms and dropoffs. You can get extremely scary speed here – my brother face-planted when landing wrong from a dropoff – so beware. I’ve only done this trail a couple of times, so might update this review in due course.

Rating 8/10

A fair bit of climbing to be done.....but the reward's worth it.
