Welcome
to Innerleithen – original and friendly. Our town is the eighth
largest settlement in the Scottish Borders and is situated near the
junction of Leithen Water and the River Tweed in the eastern part of
Tweeddale.
There are good links with Peebles (6 miles) and Galashiels (12 miles)
with Glasgow and Edinburgh also within easy reach. The B709 coming from
Heriot in the north (14 miles) via Leithen Valley also passes through
the town before proceeding south via Traquair to Yarrow Valley and St.
Mary's Loch (15 miles).
Innerleithen is an excellent centre for golf, fishing, mountain biking,
walking and bowling and the Southern Upland Way is within easy reach.
Innerleithen enjoys a busy events calendar throughout the year, including
musical and sporting pursuits. There is an amazing array of local organisations,
catering for a wide variety of interests.
The Innerleithen Online web site has been created by Innerleithen, Traquair
& Glen Community Council to provide information about this beautiful
corner of Scotland.
Innerleithen Online offers web space to local hotels
or any other businesses in Innerleithen area. Please get in touch if
