Walking

Glenshee and Strathardle are a veritable treasure trove for walking!  Whether you are after a pleasant amble along the banks of the River Ardle, an energetic hill climb up one or more of the area's Munros (hills over 3000 feet), a bracing walk in one of the forests; you will find all this and more on our doorstep.  Scotland's only circular long distance trail, the Cateran Trail, passes through the area providing an opportunity for a range of shorter and longer walk.

Click here for information about the walk from Enochdhu to the Spittal of Glenshee, the walk to Glen Lochsie and Glen Taitneach, and the hill walks up Mount Blair, Ben Gulabin, The Cairnwell, Carn Aosda and Carn a Gheoidh.  The extensive network of walks in and around the Pitlochry area, including Ben Vrackie, is only a short distance from Strathardle and Glenshee. Click here for further information.

The 2007 Blairgowrie and East Perthshire Walking Festival which takes place from September 28th until October 4th includes several guided walks in the Strathardle and Glenshee area.

The Hallewell Pocket Walking Guide "Walks East Perthshire" provides useful information about a number of walks in the area.  You can purchase the guide in the Blairgowrie Tourist Information Centre, at the Kirkmichael Village Shop or on-line.
