The Ring of Breadalbane Explorer mini bus service has started running for the 2015 summer season. It will operate on Tuesdays, Wednesdays and Sundays until Sunday 18th October and is a useful service for walkers and cyclists wanting to do linear routes or those without their own transport.
Amulree – one of the bus stops
The “hop-on hop-off” service connects Crieff, Comrie, St Fillans, Lochearnhead, Killin, Kenmore, Acharn and Aberfeldy on a circular route, providing easy access to the area’s top tourist attractions including the Birks Cinema, Auchingarrich Wildlife Centre, Dewar’s Aberfeldy Distillery, the Scottish Crannog Centre and Highland Safaris.
Running both clockwise and anti-clockwise four-times daily to a scheduled timetable, the bus offers visitors and residents the means to have a perfect day out in Breadalbane, accommodating child buggies and well behaved dogs at no extra cost. With their bike trailers and passing by many popular walk locations, the two Explorer mini buses open up the area to linear walks and cycle routes which otherwise can only be undertaken using two cars. One of the routes that can be undertaken from the bus is the circuit of Loch Freuchie from Amulree.
