I LOVE Pitlochry, even though I discoverfed it only last week ! I feel like I have been there in the past . . .
It is a place that changes with the seasons.
Another great video, we used to holiday there when I was very young in the early 60's it has great memories for me...even now when I am driving North I always stop there for a walk round town and over the dam to the theatre and back over the ''bouncy footbridge''

Lovely part of the world, but my god the prices of hotels have gone through the roof.
Очень красиво!
Thank you
It’s so beautiful. Last year we gifted our daughter and son-in-law a trip. They chose Scotland.
Nice area. Some dodgy street parking, not much room for a fire engine but then most of UK is the same.
I suppose the Fire Service back in the day was just a bunch of just guys running with buckets! 😀
Lovely wee town
A hidden gem!
This American was in Pitlochry and Moulin for a visit a couple of times in the 90s and enjoyed both a great deal.
I do intend to do some more video of Pitlochry in the future. A simple drive through can never capture everything.
