Dùn Rig is a rather featureless heather and grass covered lump standing above forests and farmland halfway between Peebles and St Mary's Loch. It is the only summit in the Manor Hills high enough and with sufficient prominence to make it into the list of Grahams.

The quickest route to Dùn Rig would be to cycle from Peebles down the length of Glen Sax to the foot of Dùn Rig, where a short hike of 1km up a 300m heather-clad hillside gains the trig point on the top !

With Dùn Rig standing as the highest point on a circuit of wide heather crests in which there are 3 other 'Donald' hills, a far more enjoyable route can be taken hiking or fell-running following fence-lines, tracks and, for part of the way, a section of the Cross Borders Drovers Road.
