This National Trust for Scotland woodland sanctuary near Dunkeld offers spectacular forest walks through towering Douglas firs to Ossian's Hall, a charming folly overlooking the River Braan's dramatic waterfalls. The riverside paths wind through ancient woodland with thoughtfully maintained trails that showcase Scotland's natural landscape at its finest, particularly stunning during autumn when golden leaves frame the cascading water and historic architecture.

Why we think it's family friendly

What stands out here is the genuine accessibility across the site, the main paths to both the summerhouse and cave can be navigated with buggies and wheelchairs, though some sections require preparation for pushchair users. Families will appreciate the dedicated parking facilities, the well-maintained pathways that make exploration manageable with young children, and the short 20-minute walk to reach the waterfall views, making it realistic for families with varying fitness levels.
