The Cateran Trail follows the footsteps of 16th century cattle rustlers (caterans) for 63 miles (101 km). It starts from Blairgowrie, passing through the heart of Scotland with its rich pre-history, heritage and wildlife. This circular waymarked walk can be comfortably completed in 4-5 undemanding days, with the nearesrt village never more than 7 miles away
