Black Spout
A waterfall about 60 metres high in the woods outside Pitlochry, with a trail that connects to Edradour Distillery.
Black Spout is a multi-tier waterfall on the Edradour Burn, with a total drop of about 60 metres, and a wooden viewing platform among the trees faces the main fall. From the Black Spout car park on the south side of town, it takes about 15 minutes to walk through an oak wood to reach it. You can continue uphill to Edradour Distillery and loop back to town, for a total of about 5 km. This is the most popular short walk around Pitlochry. It is free to visit, but the paths are slippery in rain.
