Perthshire walks

Highland Perthshire is the eastern gateway to the Highlands. Richly and magnificently forested, the region has become branded as 'Big Tree Country' - a name richly deserved. The wide and graceful River Tay - Scotland's grandest river - flows through the region from its source in serene Loch Tay.

This is a very varied part of the Highlands, ranging from the fertile farmland around Crieff and Strathearn, though the beauty of winding Glen Lyon to the wilds of Rannoch. This variety means there are walking routes cater for all levels of fitness, from easy family rambles, through longer, more strenous hikes to ascents of the major Munro summits. There is also extensive listings of places to stay, including hotels, self catering cottages, and hostels, as well as an online shop for local books and maps. Each route is downloadable to your GPS in either GPX (universal) or QUO format.
