Southern Cheviot Hills

Thursday

Despite now being based on the coast, a forecast of all day fog and mist meant I had to head back inland to the hills.

The Cheviot Hills are a range of rolling hills straddling the Anglo-Scottish border betweenNorthumberland and the Scottish Borders. The English section is within the Northumberland National Park. The Southern Cheviots include the Otterburn 'Army Training Estate' (ATE), the UK's largest firing range, where the Ministry of Defence train up to 30,000 soldiers a year.

The southern Cheviot hills encompass the slopes running down to the valley of the river Coquet.
