At the foothills of Ben Vrackie and in the heart of Scotland lies the charming little town of Pitlochry on the banks of River Tummel. Scotland is known for its distilleries, and Blair Athol Distillery is one of the oldest working distilleries in the country and a must-visit when in town. Pitlochry also includes a fascinating historic structure known as Pitlochry Standing Stone, similar to Stonehenge, but smaller in size. With abundant natural beauty, the town is popular for its walking trails that lead visitors to the nearby Loch Dunmore as well as to the summit of Ben Vrackie. For something thrilling try white water rafting on River Tummel. While hotels are plenty, opt for a more personalized stay at a charming little cottage in Pitlochry.
