Route walked from Blair Atholl to Pitlochry. If leaving from Pitlochry station to head towards Blair Atholl, cross the footbridge and then turn north on platform 2 to find the way out of the station. Here there is a pavement along the the main road and then an alternative path through woods on the opposite side of the road can be taken to avoid walking on the road around a blind bend. The route rejoins a tarmac road with occasional vehicular traffic accessing the House and the Fishery Research Centre. The path leaves and rejoins the road so care needs to be taken with navigation here....

While this is a very beautiful route, and the Tarf Hotel bothy provides a wonderful shelter in the remote southern Cairngorms, this route should not be undertaken without significant preparations and hillwalking skills....

I walked from Pitlochry to Blair Atholl on 15 May 2021, partly in training for a longer walk, and using the rail network at each end. It's a good route, with attractive scenery, through woods and by the river. Navigation was straightforward....

The dog loved the route, and only needed to be on the lead for the road section where the quarry trucks were the only thing to watch out for. Cracking views on the Garry section and will be brilliant when the zip lines open up as you might get to see the action....
