Departure from Perthshire and Kinross
A lovely walk through coniferous and deciduous woodland and open pasture, on the way to Loch of the Lowes. Use the hides at the Scottish Wildlife Trust’s visitor centre to sneak a peek in season at overwintering geese, ducks including goldeneye and the striking, head shaking courtship of the great crested grebe. A camera provides live and recorded images of the famous osprey nest in season and other local wildlife.

Walk above Loch Tommel, but without a view of the loch. Walk in the forest passing by ruins of houses abandoned around the18th century.
The road to the car park from Pitlochry is narrow and a bit challenging for non-British drivers. The walk is pleasant but not particularly worth the detour.

This magnificent walk inspired the Scottish poet Robert Burns. The entire route is through woodland. You are constantly surrounded by the sound of waterfalls and the wind in the trees.
Please note that there are a few passages that may cause vertigo, although the route is perfectly safe and surrounded by barriers where necessary. There are some steep steps that may discourage some people. However, overall, the route is suitable for the whole family.

Dumglow is an unavoidable point in the area of The Cleish Hill. The Cleish Hills straddle the boundary between Perth & Kinross and Fife. Made up of tussocky grass moorland they have a real hill feel to them despite not being particularly high. The highest point Dumglow lies within Perth and Kinross, but at 339m the nearby Park Hill is the seventh highest hill within Fife. Although Park Hill could be approached from the Fife side, it is probably best included with an ascent of Dumglow.
