Following the relentless, wooded slog to claim height from Innerliethen, you're rewarded with a contouring run across the tops with some spectacular views as you crest Brown Knowe and head towards Lucken Head. The trail is pretty easy going - well surfaced singletrack for the most part - although there's always the usual 'can get muddy when it rains' caveat. And, as the Southern Uplands Way is pretty popular, be wary of walkers.
