Top 10 Kid Friendly Things To Do and Attractions in Kenmore

"These pretty waterfalls are located in the small village of Killin, set on the northeastern edge of the national park. Stand on the village’s narrow stone bridge and watch the crashing white water furiously rush by beneath your feet. With the misty spray upon your face and the churning river below, it’s hard not to feel swept away by the pure power of nature."

"About an hours drive north of Loch Katrine in the village of Killin are the beautiful Falls of Dochart. Here you can watch the water as it tumbles around the rocks and under the village bridge, as well as around the islands of Inchbuie, the traditional and ancient burial place of Clan Macnab."

"The Sir Walter Scott has been cruising on Loch Katrine since 1900, and while the world around has moved on, I suspect the views and experience are somewhat similar to those experienced by the Victorians who took this boat, way back in the day. The views are magnificent, and experiencing a Scottish loch from the water is a must-have experience. There’s even a bar on-board, should you wish to enjoy a wee dram (or, in our case, a hot chocolate) as you steam across the lake."

"This loch was a favorite among Victorian visitors—mysterious and wide and, at times, quite wild. Today it's the source of Glasgow's…"

"In the village of Balquhidder (ball-whidder), 9 miles north of Callander off the A84, there's a churchyard with – perhaps – Rob Roy's grave. It's an appropriately beautiful spot in a deep, winding glen in big-sky..."

"Particularly popular with wild swimming groups, Loch Lubnaig is one of the best spots for anyone just getting started with wild swimming. The car park – on the road between Callander and Strathyre – has direct access to the beach and the loch, making it easy for changing and warming up. The (relatively!) sandy beach is also great for getting in and out of the water easily."

"These formal Victorian gardens, regarded as some of the finest of their kind in Europe, celebrate family and Scottish heraldry. Combining…"

"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."

"Set just off Pitlochry's main street, is a quiet floral haven with working water wheel and lade, great food all day long, live bands and lovely rooms."

"An elegant Victorian house with stunning views, superb food and a sincere, friendly welcome.

"RENOWNED FOR ITS FOOD" The Tigh-Na-Cloich is personally run and supervised by Peter and Helen Williams, committed to providing a superior level of service for their guests."

"Few of life’s pleasures trump heading into the heart of the Perthshire Highlands and finding yourself treated to traditional warm Scottish hospitality. That’s just what you can expect at Acarsaid Hotel in Pitlochry. This beautiful Victorian house, built in 1880 and extended, captures much of what the town and Highlands are about."

"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."
