Borderland Walking Food Tour of Berwick upon Tweed

After starting the tour in the most British of ways with a ‘bear essential’ cup of tea, guests will enter Castle Vale Park. Formerly a ravine below Berwick Castle, bakery connections and tastings will be revealed in Castle Vale Park as guests enjoy local honey on bread and the stunning view of the Royal Border Bridge, castle ruins and the mighty River Tweed. Slices of Berwick's history at the mouth of the Tweed Valley, the country’s ’bread basket’ will be discovered before walking down through the park to the riverside.

The tour takes guests along the Tweed riverside footpath on what was once the frontier between Scotland and England. Guests can enjoy a dish that fundamentally sums up the towns heritage as an industrial port and agricultural trading post while watching the water and wildlife. The path leads guests past the Boathouse and under the Royal Border Bridge.

The tour takes guests on a gentle stroll around the mile and a quarter Elizabethan Walls with regular local produce food and drink tastings connected to the history and heritage. Guests first encounter the famous Walls built by Queen Elizabeth in 1558 at the Quayside with game - heads or tails! Other local delicacies such as seafood, cheese, meats, drinks (alcoholic and non alcoholic) and sweet treats will be sampled are the tour continues round the walls.
