River Tweed Trail Business Engagement Workshop – what makes a good trailhead town?

Launching in 2028, the River Tweed Trail will be one of the UK’s newest walking and cycling routes, following the course of the river from Moffat to Berwick-upon-Tweed.

At approximately 113 miles, The River Tweed Trail will provide day and multi-day activities connecting communities, businesses and attractions along the river. Users of the trail will be able to immerse themselves in breathtaking landscapes, wonderful experiences and rich storytelling that brings the area’s history, culture and nature to life.

With Moffat being the trailhead, the opportunity exists for the town to work together to develop services and facilities to welcome walkers and cyclists at the start of their journey.

A business engagement workshop will be held on Wednesday 29 October in Moffat Town Hall from 1.30 – 5pm.

The workshop will include

· what makes a good trailhead town

· insights and best practice from other destinations and trails

· look at what Moffat already has to offer, what’s missing or needs to be improved

· a focus on opportunities and solutions.
