The Alexander Dow Walk to Burnmouth
Buses are available if you dont wan't to walk back around £2.30
From near sea-level at Gunsgreen, the Smugglers Trail Eyemouth to Burnmouth rises to over 100m on fairly gentle gradients. (The highest point is marked on OS maps as Blaikie Heugh.) The going is generally dry, though rough underfoot in places. The path follows close to the the line of the cliffs all the way. Great care should be taken here if walking with children and dogs. It is not suitable for wheelchairs. From Gunsgreen House, cross the golf course to reach the rocky shoreline. Then turn right. A path between the golf course and the sea rises towards high cliffs ahead before descending gently towards Burnmouth. Distance: Approx 3 miles (5km). Grade: Moderate. No really steep stretches, but the pathway is not surfaced at any point. Suitable for walkers of average fitness.
