The Unspoiled
Heart of Scotland
Welcome to the friendly, unspoiled heart of Scotland,
with real hospitality, clear sparkling air, beautiful scenery,
rich history, fine food, plenty to do - and helpful local
people to make your holiday easy and fun. Forget about the
congestion and queues - Blair Atholl has everything!
Spectacular Scenery
The River Garry rushes through the heart of Atholl like
a silver thread linking all the villages and glens. The
lively Atholl rivers combine with the mountains, hills and
glens to create some of the finest scenery in Scotland,
and the Atholl villages - Calvine, Blair Atholl, Bruar,
Killiecrankie, and Struan - offer some of the finest hospitality
in a natural, unspoiled setting.
|
Access to our Atholl scenery is easy - whether you like
country roads, bicycle paths, waymarked trails, or tours
guided and unguided. If you walk, you will discover plentiful
wildlife and plants, and you may even see red or roe deer.
Rich History
From the Battle of Killiecrankie in 1689 to the Jacobite
rebellions of the 18th century, this area has a rich history,
much of it central to Scotland's history. Visitors can discover
some of this history at Blair Castle and other local attractions
and museums. |
