'''Haddington Hill''' (also called '''Wendover Hill'''<ref>[http://www.thehardys.org/uploads/2/3/7/5/2375589/hardys_3rd_edition_pre-pdf_b.pdf ''The Hardys – The UK’s High Points''] at www.thehardys.org. Accessed on 15 Mar 2013.</ref>) is a hill in [[Chiltern Hills|The Chilterns]] within the parish of [[Halton, Buckinghamshire|Halton]], and the highest point in the [[England|English]] county of [[Buckinghamshire]]. On the north-eastern flank is Coombe Hill, not to be confused with another [[Coombe Hill, Buckinghamshire|Coombe Hill]] {{convert|4|km}} to the south-west.

Haddington Hill is owned by the [[Forestry Commission]], whose [[Wendover Woods]] cover much of the hill. Many tracks run through the forest, and a car park is located near the summit among the trees: the flat summit means the precise location of the highest point is difficult to determine with certainty. However, in the woods to the east of the car park there are a series of large stones bearing the inscription 'The Chiltern Summit'. The stones are surrounded by trees.

==Ascents== The peak is accessible by road, with a car park near the stone. It is also possible to climb on foot.

==SOTA== Haddington Hill is known as Wendover Woods for the purposes of [[Summits On The Air]] due to its wide activation zone and has a SOTA reference of G/CE-005 <ref>SOTLAS website accessed 19/01/2025 https://sotl.as/summits/G/CE-005</ref>

==Pavis Wood== [[Pavis Wood]], the highest point of [[Hertfordshire]], at {{convert|244|m|ft|abbr=on}}, is on the eastern ridge of this hill, on the boundary with Buckinghamshire.<ref name=Bathurst_2012/>
