Glen Lyon is a popular choice as a scenic trip for many people, and it’s easy to see why. This long, steep glen offers a wide variety of different landscapes, from sheltered trees to craggy hillsides and everything in between
All in Scenery
Kinnoull Hill Views
There’s plenty to enjoy on this walk, located on the outskirts of Perth. Starting off by skirting round some fields, it soon opens out to a wide and usually dry path, which slopes gently upwards through woodland to the summit that has stunning views of Perth and the surrounding area

A Day Trip to Loch Rannoch and Rannoch Station
Whichever way you get to Rannoch (either from the direction of Aberfeldy or Pitlochry), the scenery on the way is pretty spectacular. Choose the picturesque Schiehallion road or go through Tummel Bridge and enjoy the views over Loch Tummel. The really impressive thing about Rannoch, though, is the variety of scenery you drive through once you arrive.

We like to visit this picturesque Perthshire village with our camera fairly regularly, as it’s something of a hidden gem in many ways, though perhaps most famous for the Fortingall Yew
Spring Blossoms, Buds and Bluebells
Have you taken a moment yet to go out, find a blossoming tree or bush and just enjoy this beautiful wonder of nature? Blossom’s beauty is a transient one and will soon be gone for another year, so now if the time to truly appreciate it, finding some peace and calm as we do so.
Gorgeous Glen Lyon
