Things you must do in Perthshire
Blair Castle
Begun in 1269, this is the ancestral home to Clan Murray, and headquarters to the only private army still standing in the UK, the Atholl Highlanders.
Be adventurous
If you are looking for thrilling adrenaline kicks or simply a bit of adventure, then Perthshire is the place to be. There are a number of great operators in the area that offer a host of activities such as white-water rafting down the Tummel river. On the water you can also try kayaking, canyoning and even gorge ascents. If you don’t fancy the wet then you can stay high and dry and try cycling through some of the Perthshire woodlands, off road driving or even a spot of archery.
Hug a tree!
Perthshire is known as the Big Tree Country and it is vital that you explore some of the wonderful woodlands such as The Hermitage in Pitlochry or indeed visiting one of the many gardens such as Branklyn, Bolfrack or the Explorers Garden.
