Set in the heart of the scenic Perthshire countryside, Riverside Log cabins is the perfect place to stay for those wanting to explore the idyllic Scottish landscapes.

We can recommend many walks however, the following list is what we think are the best you should consider.

RIVER EARN PATH

The majority of this path follows the beautiful River Earn as it winds through the fields south of Crieff. It works its way inland starting at a derelict pier along the old railway line, through Sallyardoch Wood and on to Muthill. A detour (about 1 mile / 1 ½ km) about half way along the Path turns away from the river and will put you onto the wheelchair accessible Bennybeg Nature Trail which meanders over to Bennybeg Pond, with a lovely viewing platform.

The Path is about 5 ½ miles / 9 km, taking about 3 hours each way. It features a few steep slopes and steps in the town.

TORLUM PATH

This long circular path begins at the Auchingarrich Wildlife Centre near Comrie, which is well worth a visit for the whole family. The path wanders through a varied woodland landscape, which includes Sitka spruce, juniper, oak and alder trees. It climbs up the lower slopes of Torlum and Lurgan Hills. Keep an eye out for the wildlife abundant in these tranquil woods.

The loop is about 8 miles / 13 km, taking about 5 ½ hours to explore on foot. It includes variable paths and some steep sections, especially around the hills.

THE KNOCK PATH

The Knock hill rises 911 ft / 278 m and offers panoramic vistas to the Ochil Hills and the Highlands. A short easy walk around the hill’s base, while a longer steeper walk climbs through mixed woodland to the hill’s heathery viewpoint. The Knock is also part of Perthshire Big Tree Country.

The shorter walk is about ½ mile / 0.8 km, taking about ¼ to enjoy on foot. The longer moderate-going walk is 4 miles / 6.4 km and takes about 2 ½ hours to explore.

LADY MARY’S WALK

Lady Mary’s Walk is one of the finest and most peaceful in Perthshire and is stunning year round. Opened to the public in 1825, it loops along the River Earn along an avenue of mature trees and back along old drove roads to the Crieff Tryst. It is also part of Perthshire Big Tree Country.

The circular walk is about 3 ½ miles / 5.6 km and takes about 2 to 2 ½ hours. Paths are well-surfaced and accessible with a few steep slopes and resting places.
