The Curr is a hill amongst the Cheviot Hills, in Roxburghshire. It is a distinctive hill, reaching 1,850 feet, standing just west of Black Hag, the latter on the ridge dividing Roxburghshire from Northumberland and carrying the northernmost stretch of the Pennine Way.

The Curr is not on the Pennine Way nor any footpath but the low-level route for the Pennine Way passes below it, in the valley of the Curr Burn, which runs off its slopes, and it will be a familiar site to keen walks on this part of the Cheviots.
