    Tips

    September 15, 2023

    Diamond Jubilee Path runs on Leader Water's eastern banks from Leaderfoot Lodge (south) to Cowdenknowes (north). It's a gorgeous walk with views of Black Hill to the east and some rather inspiring carved benches to rest on along the way.

    You can't miss the spectacular spot just south of Redpath where, leaning over the fence here, you can look down the cliffs to the river (fabulous view). At the northern end, do look at Cowdenknowes Tower from the 16th century, attached to the Cowdenknowes House, a Category A listed mansion.
