Kings Seat

Climb up 531m to bag Kings Seat in The Cheviots.

Kings Seat

If you're up on the border ridge then bagging the King's Seat is a must. It took me a while to get this one as it's sort of in no man's land between Windy Gyle and The Cheviot, so tends to be more of a there and back walk.

Fortunately there is a pavement all the way to it. Best way is to park at Wedder Leap before heading north up to Hazely Law and then onto the border ridge.

You do get to bag the King's Seat Trig Point when you're here.
