The 10 Best Sights & Landmarks in Crieff, Scotland
Crieff (/kriːf/ ( listen); Scottish Gaelic: Craoibh, meaning "tree") is a market town in Perth and Kinross, Scotland. It lies on the A85 road between Perth and Crianlarich, and the A822 between Greenloaning and Aberfeldy. The A822 joins the A823, which leads to Dunfermline. Crieff has become a hub for tourism, famous for its whisky and history of cattle droving. Attractions include the Caithness Glass Visitor Centre and Glenturret Distillery. The nearby Innerpeffray Library (founded about 1680), is Scotland's oldest lending library. St Mary's Chapel, adjacent to the library, dates from 1508. Both are open to the public: the library is run by a charitable trust, while the chapel is in the care of Historic Scotland.

A lovely walk along the River Earn. A serene walk down what must be 'Lovers Lane' judging by the names of couples carved in the trees. It was quiet wet and muddy underfoot so be sure to bring good walking shoes.

Our party was taken round by Sue, who was very knowledgeable and gave clear explanations of all the processes that go into making both the single malt whisky - Glen Turret and the blended whisky - Famous Grouse. The tour involves quite a lot of stairs, but the less agile members of the group were well taken care of and then joined the rest of us for the final part of the tour on the level. All round an excellent visit.
