Drumfinn Hill

The walk up Drumfinn Hill from Perth is straightforward enough, and on a clear day the views back towards the city and out across Perthshire proper make it worth the effort. It's not a summit that demands technical skill or special kit - decent boots and an hour or so of your time will do it. The hill sits close enough to Perth that you can knock it off in a morning without disrupting the rest of your day, which makes it useful if you're based at one of the local caravan parks like Maycroft Retreat or Perth Caravan Park.

Who gets the most from it? Walkers doing a quick leg-stretch rather than serious hikers after a challenge. Families with kids aged eight and up will manage fine, though younger ones might find the climb tedious. The views are genuinely decent rather than spectacular - rolling agricultural land, the Tay Valley doing its thing, distant hills on the horizon. It's the kind of walk where the point is less about bagging a summit and more about clearing your head and getting some elevation.

The approach is straightforward from Perth itself, so there's no need to faff about with gates or permissions. Allow a couple of hours return if you're not charging up like it owes you money. Spring and autumn are cracking times - summer can get a bit muggy, and winter might require extra care underfoot. If you're staying at Greenhill Farm Glamping or Broadslap Farm, it's an easy drive from either spot. Pair it with exploring Perth proper or heading south towards the Earn Valley for a decent weekend.
