After checking out the weather the borders looked the best bet for a wee walk.
Inspired by a WH report we opted for a wee circular of two Donald's and a Corbett around the Grey Mare's Tail.
Should have payed more attention to the weather report and included sun cream, sunglasses and a hat for shade as it was a scorcher! Lesson also learned on the water front....double the amount for a sunny day!
Anyway height is gained quickly from the car park and the views have you frequently reaching for the camera. Good path right up to the loch but a bog fest up to the base of Lochcraig Head. A steep ascent gets you on to the high ground and the rest of the circuit is a pleasant stroll taking in the scenery.
