Featured Locations On This Scavenger Hunt
Dunfallandy Stone
A single glance reveals a thousand years of history. This ancient cross-slab connects Pitlochry to the mysterious Picts and the early spread of Christianity.
Port na Craig
Step onto a bridge packed with history—once a busy ferry crossing, now a spot for leisurely strolls and riverside tales. The clang of coins, the buzz of holidaymakers, and the thrill of Empire Day celebrations live on in memory. There is more than a bridge here—there is a secret of old Pitlochry waiting at the water’s edge.
Pitlochry Dam and Fish Ladder
Roaring water and engineering prowess meet at this local marvel, where salmon leap and visitors gaze over Loch Faskally. The dam’s shimmering pools and the fish ladder are local legends in modern Scottish lore.
Sunnybrae Cottage
Whitewashed walls and quaint thatch hint at centuries of stories within this cherished cottage. Every shutter and stone preserves a Highland way of life long before the first tourist carriage rolled into town. A true time capsule awaits on the winding lane.
Town Clock, Atholl Road
The heart of Atholl Road bustles with energy, and this unique clock has ticked off the new millennium ever since. Locals and travelers alike glance up at it's faces, each side keeping time for a story-filled stroll. There is no place in ‘the Big Tree Country’ quite like this bustling corner.
Bell Tower
Nestled on Lower Oakfield, this distinctive tower stands as a silent witness to Pitlochry's changing times. Victorian sandstone, a gleaming bell, and a quirky slate spire all hint at stories echoing through the ages. Let us meander by for a close-up look at this quirky piece of local heritage.
Black Castle Ruins
Castle fragments rise from quiet fields, whispers of knights and plagues swirling in the Highland breeze. This brooding ruin guards tales of bravery and sorrow, a silent sentry in the shadow of Ben Vrackie.
Pitlochry Railway Station
Victorian architecture meets Highland adventure at this iconic rail gateway. Elegant gables, polished stone, and the scent of adventure waft through the air whenever a train pulls up. Let us meander along the platform for a glimpse of Pitlochry’s golden era.
