Blairgowrie - Day 2

It rained more or less all morning, so we stayed and pottered around the house.

After lunch we went into town in the car, and parked at the car park at the riverside.

We walked up the path beside the River Ericht to Cargill's Leap, a narrow bit of the river where Cargill is reputed to have jumped across.


Further upriver there are a few old watermills.


There's a footbridge and a big weir with a waterfall.


We then left the river and walked uphill to the top of The Knockie, and completed the circle by walking down into Blairgowrie. We then drove back to the house.

Later in the evening we walked in to the dog-friendly pub the Ericht Alehouse for a couple of pints, then walked home again.

For dinner we had pizza and garlic bread.
