About this Event
Step out of the festive fog and into something slower, deeper and more grounded. A chance to breathe, connect, andnourish mind, body and soul in the hands of an award-winning local guide.
We begin at the Memorial Hall in Innerleithen, then cross Leithen Water via the picture-perfect Cuddy Bridge. From there, we climb Pirn Hill - short, sharp and stirring! At the summit, surrounded by cairns that tell tales of prehistory to the present day, your guide will share stories rooted in this special place.
After the hill, we descend into the hush of the forest, following tracks that invite slower steps and open conversation - reflecting and sharing the quiet magic of the Borders in winter. The group is kept intentionally small, so there’s space for conversation, connection and noticing the details that often pass us by. We will return to Innerleithen where complimentary teas and coffees will be served in the newly refrubished, cosy studio at Tweedside on the High Street.
