Explore Perthshire

Perthshire is right in the centre of Scotland and easily reached from Scotland’s cities. It is on the border of the Highlands and fertile Lowlands and so contains the wildlife found in both these areas, ensuring there is lots to see!

Evening beaver safari What an amazing experience ! We met our guide and walked to the river bank - hearing tales of how beavers live and forage and looking for signs of their activity. It was all really interesting. Our guide was very knowledgeable - we saw our first beaver within minutes. Thanks to some brilliant local knowledge we were then able to watch a family of beavers happily going about their business on the riverbank, we got great views until it got too dark. Would definitely do this trip again if we are ever back in the area

A richt grand sighting Probably the highlight of our week in Scotland. Daniele was an excellent and informative guide for us on the half-day trip. Background came first at Banff (?) rewilding (where we saw the effects of beaver activity on the landscape). Then it was a drive to the R.Ericht where we saw all six of a lodge's occupants, 2 parents, 2 of last year's (who put on a play session for me) and 2 of this year's. It didn't matter that it had rained; we were all on our stomachs in the sandy mud getting the best view we could.
Thanks very much.

Brilliant wildlife safari We had such a brilliant time on our dusk safari. Our guide Anne-Marie was so informative and interesting and we got amazing views of three adults beavers on our trip. I would definitely recommend the safari to anyone wanting to see and learn more about beavers and their return to Scotland.

Great beaver experience Wonderful experience in a very peaceful setting. The beavers were a bit elusive initially but then put on a good show as the light faded. Guide was very knowledgable, friendly and relaxed - interesting to learn about the reintroduction process and different ways beavers came to be back in Scotland. Overall, would fully recommend.
