Autumnal Perthshire


Just because summer comes to an end, does not mean you have to board yourself up indoors after the loss of bright summer nights. 


Perthshire walks

There are many walks in the Perthshire area that you can enjoy the autumnal change. The changing leaves will make you forget you miss the summer months and take in the vibrant colours that the outdoors has to offer. If you prefer to stay in the city centre, then you don’t have to stray far from the bustling streets to be inspired by the changing seasons. The area offers the best of both worlds so you are never too far from the countryside or the city. 

Enchanted Forest

Nestled in the heart of Highland Perthshire, the Fiskally Wood is a regular body of trees by day. However by night, during the month of October, the woods transform into a magical display that is aptly named The Enchanted Forest.  Perfect for kids and adults alike, the wood is a stone’s throw from the town of Pitlochry and ideal for an evening activity that will keep you inspired for long after you have left the cover of the trees.
