Car Rental Perth - Exploring Perth

Perth is situated right in the middle of Scotland and is only an hour away from both Edinburgh and Glasgow. While driving you can find a remarkable tree and woodland heritage, see some of the finest private gardens and public parks in the country and take in centuries of Scottish history along the way.

Drummond Trout Farm and Fishery has been voted Perthshire's most enjoyable visitor attraction. Here you can catch your own trout or feed the fish at the trout farm. There is also a farm shop, snacks and picnic facilities providing a great day's activities for the whole family.

Perthshire sits astride the Highland Boundary Fault, where Highlands meet Lowlands. It is this natural phenomenon that gives this area the terrific mix of terrain that forms the playground for many of the outdoor pursuits. There is a wide range of options for golfers of all ages and abilities. Choose from scenic Highland layouts, idyllic parkland settings, world famous centres such as Gleneagles and Rosemount at Blairgowrie and many 'hidden gems' spread throughout the area.

High in the pristine wilderness lies Glenshee, a winter playground to tempt every level of skier, snowboarder, climber and winter sports fanatic. Glenshee's longest run is 2 kms, starting high up on Glas Maol, one of several mountains in the area.

The town of Killiekrankie, one of the famous names of Scotland, is renowned both for its history and its scenery. The pass of Killiecrankie lies three miles north of Pitlochry, and for a mile threads the steep, thickly-wooded gorge of the Garry, between a spur of Ben Vrackie and Tenandry Hill, with the village at the north end.
