Eildon Hills hike (Scottish Borders)

Details

Hi guys,
So next Saturday the 6th of September I'm planning a hike in the Eildon Hills in the Scottish Borders. It's a relatively straightforward hike with a total ascent of around 500m and will take around 3-4 hours depending on the route we take.
There's an optional visit to Melrose Abbey (£7.50) and also the Roman museum.
We'll be meeting at 9:30am at the Scott Monument on the west side on the grass, before heading to the bus station and taking the bus (no. 51).

For the journey, you'll need to download the Borders buses app and purchase the Borderless 24 hour ticket for £10.70

Please remember to wear good hiking shoes, bring a raincoat as well as plenty food and water.
I look forward to seeing you on the 6th of September! - Myles

A quick note:
It costs over £200 a year to run the Meetup page and quite a bit of time planning and organising hikes, so there are a few things you could do if you wish to help me out:

  1. A donation of your choice to my Paypal account.

The address is: mylesalexander@outlook.com (I recommend £5 a year fee for regular members)
2. As you might know, I wrote a epic fantasy novel named
"Knights of Eternity", which is currently available as an ebook and print book. It would be very much appreciated if you purchased a copy of either. I can also sell you a signed copy (ask at the meeting). At the very least, please click on my website and have a look - it’s good for my Google rankings - Thanks a lot!
