Perthshire, often referred to as the County of Perth, is a vast and varied historic county in central Scotland stretching from fertile lowlands in the south-east to rugged mountain country in the west, including sections of the Grampian Mountains. With more than 200,000 acres of woodland (earning it the nickname “Big Tree Country”), the region features serene glens, meandering rivers, placid lochs and dramatic waterfalls. It includes agricultural land, forests, upland moors and peaks such as Ben Lawers (1,214 m). Small towns and villages dot the landscape, offering access to both outdoor adventure and historical charm—distilleries, nature trails, heritage architecture and slow-travel opportunities. Its geography makes it a gateway between the settled lowlands and the wild Highlands, so one can experience changing terrain, deep cultural roots and highland vistas all within one region.
