On the eastern shore of Loch Rannoch and just to the south of the River Tummel is Kinloch Rannoch, a lovely Scottish village that makes a great base for outdoors lovers. This small Perth and Kinross community began as a settlement for discharged soldiers and displaced crofters in the mid-18th century. Today, the village square has a monument dedicated to Dugald Buchanan, who played a key role in the early development of Kinloch Rannoch. Tourists mostly come here for the outdoors activities, including trekking, cycling and rafting. The A9 runs to the east of the village and connects with Pitlochry, the nearest major town. To the northeast is the edge of the Cairngorm Mountain & Ski Area, known for its outstanding Highlands scenery and slopes. Circling Loch Rannoch, nine miles long, is a popular daytrip from Kinloch Rannoch hotels. Surrounding the loch, a great spot for fishing, are areas of forest, moor and bog.
