Ossian's Hall

Built for the second Duke of Atholl in 1758 and restored in 1953, this folly sits on a rocky outcrop overlooking the turbulent Black Linn Fall, which affords fine views of the distant woodlands.

Dunkeld Cathedral

Reviewed By rayp775 - Ipswich, United Kingdom

Just off the main street and next to the river this is well worth a visit to enjoy the history that Dunkeld has played in past times. The main central area is undergoing renovation but the Bell Tower and Altar area well worth exploring, There is a small museum area providing some historical information to add to the visit. Free access, with donations gratefully accepted to carry on with the restorations.

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 .
