The north summit of the Eildon Hills stands at 404m. It was the largest Iron Age hill fort in Scotland with spaces flattened for at least 300 dwellings and a set of walls and ramparts around the whole summit. Later the Romans built a signalling station here. Today it's a great running loop from Melrose taking in the three summits in a nice loop.
