Top 10 Things To Do, Activities and Attractions in Pitlochry

"Less than a mile south of Kenmore on the banks of Loch Tay is the fascinating Scottish Crannog Centre, perched on stilts above the loch. Crannogs – effectively artificial islands – were a favoured form of defensive dwelling from the 3rd millennium BC onwards. This superb re-creation (based on studies of Oakbank crannog, one of 18 discovered in Loch Tay) offers a guided tour that includes an impressive demonstration of fire making and Iron Age crafts."

"The Dunkeld Cathedral is the main attraction which is now a part ruined and part active parish church. It was built between the 13th to 16th centuries, thus encompassing a number of architectural styles and elements."

"However, for those not very interested in shopping, there is a wonderful hike you can take from the shopping complex to the Falls of Bruar. The hike to the waterfalls is along a well-marked path and is easy to moderate in difficulty. Find the trailhead by going to the House of Bruar car park and then walk around the building and follow the signs for Falls of Bruar. There is a choice of two marked paths."

"One of the most popular tourist attractions in Scotland, magnificent Blair Castle – and its surrounding estates – is the seat of the Duke of Atholl, head of the Murray clan. (The current duke visits every May to review the Atholl Highlanders, Britain’s only private army.) It’s an impressive white heap set beneath forested slopes above the River Garry. Thirty rooms are open to the public and they present a wonderful picture of upper-class Highland life from the 16th century on."

"Blair Castle: This beautiful castle was just featured on an episode of Victoria and it’s right off the motorway, so stop if you have the time! Beautiful Urquhart Castle on the banks of Loch Ness just outside Inverness"
