The Cateran Ecomuseum is a museum without walls, all our sites are outside. Designed to reveal the hidden history of Cateran Country by the community who live here, it tells the story of its people, places and landscapes from pre-history to the present day.

Corbenic Poetry Path

Reviewed By craigluscar - Dunfermline, United Kingdom

Out for a walk with my Grand Daughter and camera . The trail through woodland and moor is 3 kilometres with a steady gradient to begin with the majority of the path is on fairly level ground with 32 poems and sculptures spread around the walk . There are some really good landscape views as well .It is well laid out and thought provoking in a good way . there is plenty of wildlife to see on the way round .Ideal for a jaunt with children or a dog but you must keep the dog on a lead . Not wheelchair friendly .

St Matthews Church

Reviewed By Bibcay - Gateshead, United Kingdom

Go to the other side of the river Tay when there is a sunset and look at this church, it is fantabulous. It has a pretty big steeple too.

River Tay Public Art Trail

Reviewed By Vivekananda_L - Dundee, United Kingdom

Have had some lovely walks around the art trail, through the wonderful heather (all maintained by volunteers) across the Railway Bridge which is a bit of a treat for little people and back onto Tay Street. As you come off the Railway Bridge turn left back under the bridge to the sculpture at the Fergusson Museum and if opened then this is also well worth a visit, be sure to spend at least half an hour there if not more. The whole trail takes in the pedestrian area of Perth and (parts of 4) lovely parks. If disabled access is required there are on street alternatives to what is shown on the leaflet (can be had at the Tourist info place on the High St) or from the online story map (an excellent interactive map with pics and text provided for free by the Council), the only difficulty would be the many stairs coming off of the railway bridge. The alternative is to backup through the Riverside park and cross the Tay via the Queens Bridge.
