Caer Mote is a hill of 289 metres (948 ft) in the north of the English Lake District near Bothel, Cumbria.

Under the name Caermote Hill it is the subject of a chapter of Wainwright's book The Outlying Fells of Lakeland.

Wainwright's route is an ascent from Bothel to the northern summit St. John's Hill at 285 metres (935 ft),[1][2] continuing south to the main summit and south east to meet a minor road beside the Roman fort and follow that road north for an anticlockwise circuit.

[3][4] There is an ancient earthwork enclosure of undetermined age, known as "The Battery" on the northern summit, St. John's Hill.

[5][6] There are traces of a 1st-century AD Roman fort below the hill, to the south east.
