Top 10 Free Things To Do 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."

"The Atholl Palace Hotel, the epitome of Scottish baronial splendour, stands imposingly overlooking wooded parkland grounds and the town of Pitlochry. Originally opened as the Athole Hydropathic in Victorian times, the property is now a major resort and destination with spectacular gardens, a spa and a museum featuring the life and times of the hotel. Welcome to a unique location, where the sounds of bagpipes may frequently be heard, where you will not forget the view of Ben-y-Vrackie as you stroll on the terrace in the evening sun, where a genuinely warm Highland welcome awaits you."

"A trip to the Verandah Restauant is a brilliant way to see and enjoy Pitlochry's magnificent Atholl Palace Hotel, with views over the Tummel valley while you have afternoon tea of lunch and Sunday Carvery to rival the best you will find anywhere in the world."
