By Road

From the A9 – The Red Squirrel Strathtay Route

Take the A827 heading west towards Aberfeldy – exit is located at Ballinluig 8 miles north of Dunkeld and 5 miles south of Pitlochry. Take next right after Logierait – signposted Pitnacree, Strathtay and Weem. Much of this minor road runs alongside the River Tay – the scenery is simply fantastic and there is every chance you will see red squirrels – this is one of their favourite haunts.

You will pass the entrance to Clunie Gardens on this road – remember this and return to visit. They are inspirational, refreshingly natural and non-commercial with resident red squirrels. A genuine 5-star experience.

At Weem, turn right onto the B846 (Kinloch Rannoch road) and head straight towards Coshieville (about 5 miles) passing Castle Menzies – another must visit.

Turn left at Coshieville, just after a sign announcing: “Fortingall Hotel Welcomes You – Only 3 miles to go”.

As you arrive in Fortingall, the Fortingall Hotel is on the right, immediately after the church.

From the west – The White Deer Route

Take the A85 to Lix Toll and take the turn off for Killin. Go over the Falls of Dochart bridge and drive through Killin. Follow the A827 along the north side of Loch Tay for 10 miles. When you reach the small village of Fearnan, take a left turn signposted Fortingall, and follow this road for 2 miles. After crossing the River Lyon and the turn off into Glen Lyon, look out for white deer in the field on your left. You then pass the entrance to Glen Lyon estate on the left and enter the village of Fortingall. Just after the thatched cottages you will see the hotel on the left, with the yew tree and church at the far end of the car park.

It’s all on tap here. In Highland Perthshire you get the real thing, not a computer generated simulation. Plus we have live folk and blues nights at the weekends if you want to build that into your programme.

We have hosted the lot – both indoors and up in the hills – from a team bonding week for directors of a major bank, special anniversary dinner up on the Quirang on Skye for the Keepers of the Quaich, the Famous Talisker Malt Cruise at Talisker for 4 years, well-known 4x4 manufacturer events and world-famous drink brand functions, right through to budget events for small businesses. It’s attention to detail, dedicated support and best of service that wins the day for our clients – it’s what we do. Privacy is easy – we can provide you with exclusive use of the hotel if that is what you wish.

If you are looking to organise some kind of corporate event, indoors or outdoors, in the Highland Perthshire area, and would like to consider using Fortingall, then please contact the hotel in advance to discuss your requirements with us.

Where does your interest lie?

Walking

Boots On

A romantic walk around Fortingall or four Munros in a day. Whatever your idea of a good walk, this part of Highland Perthshire has an abundance of walks for everyone. So pack your bags and get ready for the great outdoors.

In terms of Munros, we are ideally located for an easy journey to Schiehallion, the Carn Mairg circuit in Glen Lyon, Ben Lawers range, Meall nan Tarmachan, and the Glen Lochay and Loch Lyon hills.

Then there are the local Corbetts such as Meall Tairneachan, Farragon, Beinn nan Oighreag, Meall nam Maigheach and Ben Vrackie, plus several others that are easily reached from your base at Fortingall.

We are also close to one of “Scotland’s Great Trails”, the Rob Roy Way, which runs through Aberfeldy on its route from Drymen to Pitlochry.

Keen walkers heading for these higher and longer routes are likely to have their own guidebooks and maps, but for those in search of a shorter and lower-level walk we can recommend a selection of walks that guests might find to their liking. Here are a few ideas to whet your appetite.
