Higger Tor
Higger Tor or Higgar Tor is a dominant landmark of the Dark Peak, in the north of the Peak District National Park. It is a gritstone tor overlooking the Burbage Valley and the Iron Age hill fort of Carl Wark to the southeast.
The tor stands to the south west of Sheffield, just within the city boundary, about east of the border with Derbyshire, which runs along the nearby road to Ringinglow. The village of Hathersage is approximately to the west.
A scene from the 1987 film The Princess Bride was filmed nearby at Carl Wark with Higger Tor visible in the background.
