board and bike ramps

The board and bike ramps just outside Pitlochry give you a proper look at what the local youth are up to when they're not hiking Ben Vane. It's a straightforward concrete setup - skateboard ramps, BMX lines, the works - built for people who actually want to ride rather than loiter about taking photos.

Unless you're actively into skating or biking, you'll be done in ten minutes. The ramps themselves are well-maintained and the spot draws a steady crowd of younger riders. If your kids have wheels under their feet, they might spend a couple of hours here mucking about. For everyone else, it's honestly a footnote to Pitlochry's proper attractions - the town itself has far more to offer.

The nearest caravan parks are Milton Of Fonab and Faskally Woods, both within a couple of miles, which makes this accessible if you're based in the area for a longer stay. Worth knowing about if you're travelling with teenagers, but don't make it your reason for visiting Perthshire. The Tay Valley has proper outdoor attractions - Loch Tummel, the Pass of Killiecrankie - that'll hold your attention far longer than a concrete skate park.
