This is when the Hawick Common Riding takes place, a historic equestrian festival celebrating the town's boundaries and heritage. It's a truly unique event with parades, ceremonies, and a strong sense of local pride.If you prefer warmer weather for exploring the Scottish Borders countryside, July and August offer the best conditions. You'll find the days are longer, and the temperatures are generally comfortable for outdoor activities like walking or visiting nearby historical sites.
