Glentress - 1/2nd June 2013
Spent Sunday and Monday there this week as per introduction in last post. Sun done around 20 miles, exploring green route couple times then the blue route twice.
We were staying in the Wigwams, which are attached to Glentress. Finished our run around half 6, then after a freshen up went into Peebles for a beer and some food.
Wasn't a late night, so following morning I was up well before 8 and cycled into Peebles to collect car.
After breakfast at the Glentress cafe we decided to tackle the red route. This was the highlight of the day, especially at the summit at Spooky Woods. After a hard climb, an fantastic return downward journey.
The weather was fantastic on Sunday. The sun was shining and glentress was filled to the gunnels. - Monday different story. Cloudy but very warm and place very quiet, which we found actually a lot better.
Left Glentress around 3pm. I dropped Neil off then on way home did a quick bolt around Whitelee Wind farm, well as I had never been before.
Excellent couple of days. Roll on sat. Stane No2 - Glentrool as we work our way up the numbers.
