Crieff circular cycle route

A popular route in scenic countryside in the heart of Scotland.  Route mainly uses minor roads.  At Braidhaugh (beside bridge over River Earn), take minor road to Comrie and on reaching Dalginross take left turning onto B827 for Braco.  Initially there is fairly long uphill but it is not too hard and is rewarded with long downhill.  When you reach A822 crossroads, immediately on left is remains of Roman settlement, which is worth a visit for a break and read of information boards. 

Thereafter turn right onto A822 for Braco, but after 200 yards turn left towards Auchterarder.    On route to Auchterarder look out for coarse fishing centre (on left) and famous Gleneagles Hotel golf course (on right). 


Keep straight on for centre of Auchterarder, turning left at t-junction (not first left) after Cairn Hotel.  Thereafter turn left just before minor filling station to head for Tullibardine.

At Tullibardine follow signs (going right) for Kinkell Bridge.  Its worth stopping on the small inlets on the bridge for a rest and view of the river.  Thereafter follow signs and B8062 back to Crieff and your stating point.

Route can be lengthened and varied by detouring along variety of minor roads.
