This cycling tour takes you toward the eastern boundary of the Cateran Ecomuseum and around the pretty Loch of Lintrathen.<\/p>\n

The route starts in Alyth\u2019s historic Market Square. It follows Commercial Street first, then up the famous \u2018Toutie Street\u2019 before taking a right turn onto Meethill Road (B952). As you leave the town you can visit one of the many prehistoric standing stones in the area.<\/p>\n

After about 750m the road forks, and the route continues on the right eastbound. After about 4km the route passes a bridge across the River Isla, one of the main tributaries of the River Tay, with a T-junction shortly afterwards.<\/p>\n

Here the route continues left, up a relatively steep incline, for about one kilometre through beautiful Beech trees, part of the ancient Airlie Estate. The route follows the road that turns sharply to the right. After about another kilometre the route follows a road to Bridge of Lintrathen, where the Wee Bear Cafe is a great place to stop.<\/p>\n

The route follows the road to the right around the loch to a four way crossroads, look out for one of the entrances to the wildlife reserve on your left. Take a left here (another entrance to the wildlife reserve is on your left) to continue along the shores of the loch.<\/p>\n

Shortly afterward the route takes a right turn onto another road, which passes another refreshment stop, Peel Farm. Follow the signposts back to Alyth past one of Scotland\u2019s most dramatic waterfalls, Reekie Linn.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
