The Cateran Trail

£15.99

The Cateran Trail is a little-known gem, yet it’s one of Scotland’s Great Trails. This circuit of 64 miles (104 km) starts in Blairgowrie near Perth, and follows in the footsteps of ca-le-rustlers  (caterans). This waymarked trail follows ancient paths through glens, mountains and farmland of Highland Perthshire, with fine scenery, heritage and wildlife.

The nearest village is never more than 7 miles (11 km) away, and gradients are easy to moderate. It  can be completed comfortably within 4-5 days, and several route variants are described, including the option for a weekend Minitrail.

Here is a great chance of a wilderness experience. This edition has been updated for 2024, with some route updates and many minor revisions. It is lavishly illustrated, with 90 colour photos and 8 pages carrying detailed route mapping at 1:50,000. It includes some fresh photos and is perfect bound (glued and sewn), printed on rainproof paper.
