Glory of Perthshire panorama, north of Crieff and Strathearn, Scotland.
Poem. A gentler, more colourful Highlands is Perthshire. Glistening "ribbon" lochs run west to east, some large, some small. Verdant pastures for sheep and cattle, and golden arable fields make a striking patchwork, between the peaks. High Munros of beige and purple with the subtle tones and textures of lower slopes, resplendent with mostly mature Deciduous woodland. Meandering, surging and vibrant rivers flow from the famous lochs of Rannoch, Tummel, Tay and Earn, in Straths, as opposed to glens, being wider, sometimes less steep, but all farmed on the rich, water-deposited alluvium. Rapids, cataracts and waterfalls are common, as Salmon leap back to their spawning grounds. Rural villages, like Aberfeldy, cradled in these valleys, have dwellings and bridges made of Granite, seemingly everlasting. Legends, poetry and song have immortalised these timeless hills and valleys. It is their glorious diversity of colour that lingers long in our memory.
