The John Buchan Way is a walking route from Peebles to Broughton in the Scottish Borders, a distance of approximately 22 km (13 miles). The route is waymarked in both directions, and was opened in spring 2003. It is named after the writer and diplomat John Buchan (1875–1940), who has many associatio
ns with the area. The route mainly follows long-established hill tracks through the Peeblesshire countryside. It has three main ascents and descents which give a total climb of about 800 metres, but this climb is never severe. The walk can be completed in one day by strong walkers, or can conveniently be split.
