The Kentigern Way follows a linked series of existing long-distance paths which connect Annan to Glasgow. The route is
described from South to North (but can just as easily be followed in the opposite direction if so desired). The
start point and finish points of the route are conveniently served by public train and bus transport as are several places
along the route.
Sections 1, 2 and 3 follow the Annandale Way from Annan to Moffat
Sections 4 and 5 follow the Southern Upland Way past St Mary's Loch to Traquair in Upper Tweeddale
Section 6 follows part of the Cross Border Drove Road to Peebles
Section 7 Follows the John Buchan Way to Biggar
Section 8 follows a series of byways leading to the Clyde Valley and New Lanark
Sections 9 and 10 follow the Clyde Walkway into Glasgow and the Cathedral.
With the exception of section 8, each of these trail sections has its own dedicated web-site giving full details of the route.
This Kentigern Way web-site provides a gateway to the relevant portions of these web-sites.
The majority of the paths are clearly waymarked as part of already established routes. Kentigern waymarkers are placed only
at occasional intervals. Links are provided to the websites of the established walking
routes' as shown below. Appropriate website links will appear on the detailed sectional pages
along with images of their waymarker logos.
(Note: where reference is made to the L and R banks of the rivers, this is based on the direction walking northwards and
not the direction of flow of the rivers.)
The established walking routes that are followed are:-
