Pitlochry

Este encantador pueblo, con su arquitectura victoriana, es un punto estratégico para explorar rutas hacia paisajes impresionantes y destinos turísticos.

Situated in the heart of Scotland, halfway between Edinburgh and Inverness, is a small town known for a beauty that has not gone unnoticed even by British royalty. It's Pitlochry, a town of less than 3,000 people with Victorian buildings that have crowned it one of the region's most authentic destinations. Stopping off in this charming village is easy, as it's on the way to most routes connecting the Lowlands and the Highlands.

This picturesque town is situated in the Perth and Kinross council area, a privileged location, as it is within easy reach of many tourist destinations. Its central location and charm have made it a strategic stopover for travellers touring the country and making the most of their stay in Scotland. So much so, that we have added it as a final day stop on several of our 1, 2 and 3 day tours, such as the Loch Ness, Inverness and Highlands excursions.

Pitlochry is just over an hour and a half's drive from Edinburgh, at the foot of the A9, the longest road in the country known as the backbone of Scotland. Its rail and bus links couldn't be better, as it can be reached by both from Edinburgh, Inverness and Glasgow. By train, there are also departures from Perth, Dundee, Aberdeen and Stirling.

Its rise as a tourist centre dates back to the 17th century, with the construction of the road that would allow military access to the Highlands. What was originally a small village adjoining the settlement of Moulin became, with this important road, the travellers' passage that it is today, providing new inns and shops.
