The Lammermuir Hills

The Lammermuir Hills form a large natural barrier between East Lothian and the Scottish Borders. This is a large area offering many locations to explore and get away from it all.

Explore maps of the area and you will find standing stones, an Iron Age Hill Fort, castle ruins, and more.

The hills are known for their open expanse of moorland and heather.
