Take the A720 and follow the signs to the Forth Road Bridge. Join the M90 that takes you to the City of Perth - the ancient Capital of Scotland. Visit Scone Palace and the Caithness Glass Factory. On up the A9, through the Pass of
Killiecrankie to Blair Atholl and visit Blair Castle, home of the
Duke of Atholl- the only person in Britain to have his own private
army From Pitlochry come back down the A9 to Ballinluig. Join the A827 to Aberfeldy - view the Falls of Moness and Weem Castle. Continue on the A827, through Kenmore and at Fearnan turn Right at the sign for Fortingall. Visit the 3000 year old Yew tree in the church yard. Back towards Fearnan turn Right at the sign for Glen Lyon. This is reputedly the longest, loveliest, loneliest glen in Scotland. At Bridge of Balgie you can either go straight on for another 15 miles to the dam at the end of the glen - it's well worth the effort - or you can turn Left and take the mountain road along the side of Ben Lawers (1214 m).
