A68 crossing the River Tweed (HFF Everyone)

HFF 14 Jan 2022

The River Tweed near Melrose in the Scottish Borders, flowing eastward for 97 miles (156 km) and forming for 17 miles (27 km) the border with England. For the last 2 miles (3 km) of its course, the Tweed flows through England before entering the North Sea at Berwick-upon-Tweed.

Scotland is renowned for salmon fishing and the River Tweed is recognised as one of the truly great Atlantic salmon rivers.

The A68 road is the most direct route between Darlington in the north-east of England and Scotland's capital city of Edinburgh. The road originally ran right into the city but now joins the A720 (City of Edinburgh Bypass) near Dalkeith.

From where I join the A68 just west of Darlington, I have a constantly changing view of wild and beautiful landscapes for the 130 miles to Dalkeith. Rain, fog and sometimes snow notwithstanding;-)
