Borders Abbey Way Route Map

This route map covers the Borders Abbey Way — a 107km (66.4-mile) circular walking route through the Scottish Borders, linking four of Scotland's most celebrated ruined abbeys: Melrose, Dryburgh, Jedburgh, and Kelso. As a circular route it can be started from any of the four towns and is typically walked over five days.

About the Route

The Borders Abbey Way passes through the gentle pastoral landscape of the River Tweed valley and its surrounding hills, connecting four great medieval abbeys founded by King David I of Scotland in the 12th century and repeatedly damaged during the Wars of Scottish Independence and the Rough Wooing. Melrose Abbey — where the embalmed heart of Robert the Bruce is said to be buried — is the most complete and most visited of the four. The route passes through the attractive market towns of Melrose, Jedburgh, Kelso, and St Boswells, with fine views of the Eildon Hills throughout the walk.

What the Map Shows

The entire 107km route is shown on a single map sheet at 1:50,000 scale, with the Abbey Way highlighted for easy navigation. In common with all 1:50,000 OS mapping, footpaths, roads, settlements, and tourist attractions are shown alongside the route. The four abbey locations are clearly marked. The map measures 80cm x 60cm at actual size — suitable for printing at a local print shop for use on the route.

Map files are supplied in PDF format and are available to download immediately after payment has completed on the Thank You page through a displayed download link. If you miss this the download link is also emailed to you, so make sure you can access the email address entered at checkout.

Most PC's and laptops are set up to send downloaded files to the Download folder on the device so it's always worth checking there. If you can't find it get in touch and we'll help get you the file.

Printing the Map Files

Do you supply Printed Maps?

No, we only supply OS mapping in digital format - most often in PDF format. This is easy to open and use on most electronic devices and is also very easy to print from.

Can I have my map files printed?

We don't offer a printing service, but you can take your map file to a local printing company, or send it by email to a national company to have the file printed to your specification.

More Printing Queries

Can I change the print size when I get the map file printed?

We do not recommend changing the print size. All the map files have been created to be printed at Actual Size. This keeps it easy when it comes to printing, just print it at the size it's supposed to be. If the file is scaled then it could become blurry, blocky or otherwise illegible.

No, you can not publish the file online without the correct licence. This can be obtained from OS, please contact us for more information.
