Walkerburn Pump Track

Walkerburn Pump Track, Scottish Borders — an all-weather asphalt pump track delivered by Velosolutions UK for the Walkerburn Community Development Trust, with funding from Scottish Borders Council and sportscotland. Opened in August 2024, it sits alongside a multi-use games area, giving the small Tweed Valley village a fresh, family-friendly riding space

Pump Track

The loop is around 110 m long and built to the usual Velosolutions standard — smooth asphalt, well-shaped rollers, and flowing berms that suit riders of all ages and abilities. It’s designed for bikes, scooters, and skateboards, with an easy gradient and space for beginners to build confidence. The track has already hosted local school sessions and community ride days, showing strong local engagement right from opening.
