Pitlochry Town
Baile Chloichridh
A Victorian-era Highland holiday town, with a stone-built main street lined with wool shops, whisky shops and tea rooms.
After Queen Victoria's visit, the railway turned Baile Chloichridh into a holiday destination. Along Atholl Road, the main street, stand 19th-century stone houses, with shops selling Scottish woollen goods, whisky specialists, tea rooms and small restaurants. The town has a railway station and makes a good base for exploring Highland Perthshire. The Highland Games are held in September, and some shops close in winter. From the town centre you can walk to the dam, the fish ladder, the Black Spout and the Festival Theatre.
