Lady Mary's Walk

The walk was a favourite of Lady Mary Murray, whose father, Sir Patrick Murray of Ochtertyre named it for her and opened it to the people of Crieff in 1825.

The path provides a peaceful stroll beside the picturesque River Earn, along an avenue of mature oak (Quercus robur), beech (Fagus sylvatica), lime (Tilia vulgaris) and sweet chestnut (Castanea sativa) trees, including some fine, large tree specimens.

The circular wooded walk takes you along the banks of the Earn, returning to pass directly by Eppie Callum's Tree, named after the 17th century inn keeper.

Easy and moderate-going walk on well surfaced path with resting places - wheelchair and pushchair friendly - of 3.5 miles/ 6 km and 4.5 miles/ 7 km.
