Scott's View
Sightseeing in Scotland picture - The triple peaks of the Eildon Hills are the most distinctive single landmark in the Borders. At their feet in the valley of the River Tweed lies Melrose. This was one of Sir Walter Scotts favorite views of his beloved Borderland. It is said that the horse pulling the hearse taking him to his burial at Dryburgh Abbey stopped at this spot, as it usually did on its daily outings with Sir Walter aboard.
