This point marks where the St Cuthbert's Way passes closely to the peak of Eildon Mid Hill, one of a cluster of three sharply rising summits including North and Wester. The name 'Eildon Hills' translates from Old English as 'Old Hill Fort', but today these hills are a popular place to visit with hikers, offering spectacular views down to nearby Melrose Abbey. Well worth a visit!
