    Tips

    January 24, 2020

    Frequently quoted as 'the best natural descent in the Tweed Valley', Gypsy Glen is certainly up there.

    Not enormously steep, but rutted in places, loose and scrabbly in others, it's a high-speed, low consequence (well, relatively - this is mountain biking after all) blast from start to finish.

    And when you can drag your eyes up from the trail, the views are simply stunning.

        Great natural trails, some tough climbs and some great descents. Fantastic views from the tops. Best done during a dry spell.
