Pitlochry is on the River Tay in Perthshire.
It is well known for its salmon leap and Festival Theatre.
To the south: Perth - 27 miles.
Edinburgh - 69 miles.
To the north: Aviemore - 56 miles.
Inverness - 87 miles.
The Highland Games are held in Pitlochry on the
second Saturday in September. I found the 2005 games to be very
lively with lots of contestants, many of the events taking place
throughout the afternoon, including Scottish Country Dancing, piping,
athletics, children's sports, cycling, tug-of-war and the heavy
events.
