Glentress Improvement Views Wanted

Forestry Commission Scotland is encouraging mountain bikers, walkers and the local community to give their views on how it can improve the recreation development at Glentress Forest.

Two 'drop in' events are due to be held at the Glentress Café this week to allow the public to give their opinions. The events are the last in a series of stakeholder and public feedback sessions to be held, with all the information collated then being used to develop a master plan for the area.

Leona Wilkie of Forestry Commission Scotland said: "The drop-in events are specifically aimed at testing ideas for Glentress Forest and how people would like us to develop it for years to come.

"We've had brilliant feedback to date on how people would like to see recreation in the Tweed Valley progress. Now we want to focus purely on Glentress and what it could offer.

"Please come in and speak to us at the Glentress café and tell us what you would like to see happen."

Glentress is famous for being the flagship 7stanes mountain bike centre, boasting world-class trails.

The two drop in events will be held on Friday 12 July from 5pm to 8.3-pm and Saturday 13 July from 9am to 2pm.
