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[1] to the southeast.

The tor stands to the south west of Sheffield, just within the city boundary, about {{convert|200|m|yards}} east of the border with Derbyshire, which runs along the nearby road to Ringinglow. The village of Hathersage is approximately {{convert|2|km}} 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.[2]
