Northumberland and Cheviot Hills weather
40 peaks with full guides
The Cheviot Hills run along the border between England and Scotland in Northumberland National Park. The Cheviot (815m) is the highest, a broad peaty top reached by a slabbed path from the border ridge. The hills are big, quiet and wet underfoot, and the Pennine Way crosses them on its last long day to Kirk Yetholm. Each hill below has its own summit forecast.
