Moffat Hills, Hill chain in Scottish Borders, Great Britain.

The Moffat Hills form a triangular range spanning 17 kilometers from east to west, with White Coomb reaching 821 meters as the highest elevation point.

The area contains Bronze Age roundhouses near Fruid Reservoir and multiple standing stones along the road between Tweedsmuir and Fruid, indicating early settlements.

The Devil's Beef Tub, a deep hollow between four hills, received its name from the Johnstone clan who stored stolen cattle during historical border conflicts.

Multiple entry points lead to the hills, including Capplegill, Carrifran, and Grey Mare's Tail, with the Annandale Way offering a 55-mile walking route through the region.

Both the River Annan and River Tweed originate in these hills, flowing in opposite directions toward the Solway Firth and North Sea respectively.
