Gavin Ritchie

There's something instantly calming about being out and walking in nature. Forget your mindful apps and daily emails telling you to switch off, it's been proven time and again that fresh air and open spaces are two of the best things you can feed your mind, body and spirit.

Here in Perthshire, Mother Nature has been especially kind and we are blessed with a natural environment unlike any other.  From the rugged terrain of the Northwest Highlands and the beauty and supplenesss of the Lowlands. We can't think of anywhere else in the country that has the same mix of mountains, lochs, forests, rivers, valleys and moors.

Venture further out and you will find rural Perthshire awaits you in all her glory. From Loch Leven to the Deil's cauldron, Loch Earn to Dunkeld, there are so many reasons to put down your busy life, embrace Mother Nature and spend time relaxing in the countryside and landscapes of our amazing corner of the world.

Throw in our vibrant sunsets and sun rises, the ever changing seasons, red deer running wild, and an awe-inspiring landscape and it is easy to see why a wee walk in Perthshire beats every other mindful option hands down!

Pack your bag for an adventure into the countryside and head to the hills with our walking guide for the 28 munroes in the area. Read the article here.
