Hedgehope Hill, Mountain summit in Northumberland, England
The second-highest peak in the Cheviot Hills reaches 714 meters with steep sides and provides extensive views across the northern English countryside.
The mountain has served as a natural border landmark between England and Scotland, standing approximately 4.8 kilometers from the national boundary line.
Local shepherds have utilized the slopes of Hedgehope Hill for centuries, maintaining traditional grazing practices that shape the mountain landscape.
Hikers can access the summit through two main routes: from Langleeford in Harthope Valley or via a longer path from Linhope in Breamish Valley.
From the peak, visitors can see up to 60 kilometers on clear days, with views extending to the coastal town of Blyth and central County Durham.
