Explore The Trossachs
The Birthplace of Scottish Tourism
Artists and poets of the early 1800s first put the Trossachs on the map. Attracted by the romantic and dramatic contrasts in Highland and Lowland landscapes, their poems and paintings were so vivid that they drew large numbers of visitors. This was the beginning of tourism in Scotland.
The 40 mile Trossachs Trail was inspired by the original historic Trossachs Tour that was popularised in the 1800s. This new website is here to help you explore and experience for yourself the amazing beauty, natural wonders and hospitality in and around the Trossachs.
Follow the brown Trossachs Trail signs to enjoy the magical nature and heritage qualities of the area.
