The Area

The Golfie, also known as Caberston Forest, is one of the main reasons riders visit the Tweed Valley.

Located above Innerleithen, the Golfie is known for its steep, technical and natural enduro trails. Expect roots, rocks, challenging descents and classic Tweed Valley terrain that rewards confident riders.

Innerleithen is one of Scotland’s best-known mountain biking destinations, offering a variety of natural, enduro and downhill riding.

From Tweed Valley Pods, you’re close to Innerleithen’s trails, local bike shops and uplift services. Whether you’re planning a full day on the Golfie, riding the Innerleithen downhill trails or exploring the surrounding forests, our location makes an ideal base.

Glentress is around 2.5 miles from Tweed Valley Pods and offers an extensive network of purpose-built mountain bike trails.

With routes for a range of abilities, Glentress is ideal for trail riders, families, groups and experienced mountain bikers looking to mix up their riding. Combine a day at Glentress with riding at the Golfie and Innerleithen to make the most of your stay in the Tweed Valley.

Tweed Valley Pods encourage all visitors and riders of the MTB trails to support the effort made by local volunteers by supporting the Tweed Valley Trail Association - please consider joining a dig day, becoming a member or making a single donation.
