Moffat to the A701/Raehills

Moderate

This is one of five sections of the Annandale Way. Starting from the old Moffat station car park, turn right and walk for about a mile on the A701 using the left hand side footpath, before turning left at the sign for Moffat Community Nature Reserve (that and Dyke Farm Nature Reserve both well worth a visit) through the fields of Dyke Farm, marching first a Roman Road and then the Southern Upland Way under the A74(M) and as you enter Beattock village, turn right up the Crooked Brae, over the bridge with traffic lights and uphill for a mile or so.
