The Hermitage (National Trust for Scotland)

Absolutely wonderful place. The waterfall is stunning and surrounding forest is gorgeous! Advisable to wear study and comfortable shoes as it can be very wet, muddy and slippery. There’s a public restroom and a small food truck/shop. Sufficient car park space. The observatory has a good view of the waterfall. Can spot lots of mushrooms :)

Fantastic afternoon at The Hermitage!! It felt like walking in a fairy forest! Easily found parking, then spent ~2hrs amidst the different paths. All trails were accurately marked and well groomed. When we visited, there were no washrooms (you had to visit Dunkeld, but it’s also a lovely village 🙂 ) so just be prepared!

A beautiful place for all specially for elderly as almost flat walk to stunning waterfall. Several walking trails for all type of efforts you wish to make. In winter this place looks like a true winter wonderland.

Beautiful forest walk with waterfalls and hidden spots. We hiked the circular Braan Trail on a sunny day—perfect weather for it. Took great photos at the Rumbling Bridge, Ossian’s Hall, and the cave. Peaceful picnic along the way. Last stretch of the trail had warning signs due to a recent landslide, but the path was still manageable. A magical mix of woods, river views, and historic follies. Paid parking in the parking lot, which also had a stand selling coffee and doughnuts.

Well worth the visit if in the area. Beautiful place! Easy walk with a beautiful waterfall at the end. Can keep going to make a large loop and hike up to Pinecone Point. AllTrails isn’t a bad idea as the trails can be a bit confusing.

The Hermitage. Situated across the A9 from Dunkeld. Plenty of parking. With a map and information board on site. What a lovely walk. Nothing too hard. Some mild inclines. We did the loop from the car park to the car park. A fabulous woodland walk. There are a few points of interest along the route. We even think we saw a sleeping giant. It's all worth seeing. A very nice morning was spent in the forest.

If you live near here then I think your lucky to have such a tremendous place nearby. If you are passing by then you simply have to visit. This woodland walk is spectacular and there is a woodland walk which, according to the national trust, takes about 2.5 hours to complete. If you don't want such a big walk then you can take a 10 minute hike to Ossian's Hall. From here you can view the incredible waterfall that's behind it. Spectacular walk for the whole family, the kids will find fun everywhere while engaging their imagination.

Stunning woodland walks with a quirky history, variety of paths with something suitable for most abilities. Very popular on sunny days, and popular with tour groups, but a good amount of parking available at a reasonable price. Brilliant for a nice wee wander.
