Eildon Hill North is an historic, photogenic and widely visible landmark in the Scottish Borders. At 1325 feet (404 m) this peak is the second highest of the three Eildon (pronounced ‘Eeldon’) Hills located just south of Melrose. The significance of Eildon Hill North was recognised by Bronze Age and Iron Age peoples and by the Romans. This peak was the site of the largest Iron Age hill fort in Scotland. Up to 2000 people are thought to have lived here at the same time. Today the pockmarks from hundreds of roundhouse platforms and nearly 1-mile of defences are still visible. When the Romans came in about 80 AD they built their mighty garrison fort called ‘Trimontium’ (named after the three Eildon peaks) immediately below Eildon Hill North and also placed a signal station on this summit. Trimontium was the largest Roman settlement north of Hadrian’s Wall. The short but steep climb up Eildon Hill North is well worth the effort! On a clear day you will be rewarded with stunning views. The popular St Cuthbert’s Way that runs from Melrose Abbey to Holy Island in Northumberland climbs over the col in the Eildon Hills and provides a pleasant way up Eildon Hill North.

Great view over the surrounding area from Bemersyde Hill. Not too difficult a climb if the weather has been ok.

Scott's View is a stunning viewpoint overlooking the valley of the River Tweed. It’s said to be one of the favourite views of Sir Walter Scott, and showcases the striking profile of the Eildon Hills.

The central and highest of the Eildon Hills Eildon Mid Hill stands at 422m and offers the best views. Look northeast to the Iron Age hill fort ramparts on the north hill, south over the smaller Wester Hill and north over Melrose. The three hills are a great run from Melrose, steep and punchy but not actually that high or far so perfect for a half day or pre/post work run. Great views and some good vert for the distance.
