Glentress Forest

The Tweed Valley's flagship center, off the A72 between Peebles and Innerleithen, builds a full ladder of difficulty from one car park: a 3.5 km green, a 16 km blue, an 18 km red and a 29 km black, plus green, blue and red skills areas and short taster trails. The trailhead has a café, bike hire, showers and toilets, which makes it an easy place to bring a mixed group where some ride the blue and others go for the black. Storm damage and tree felling have closed and diverted several red and black sections, some until the end of March 2027, so expect diversions on the harder loops for now.
