Birnam and Dunkeld - Day excursion from Perth (Perthshire), Scotland
Birnam and Dunkeld are two lovely small villages 30 minutes far from Perth, Scotland. In the day spent here I could enjoy natural beauties as well as relevant historical sites.
The most famous attraction in Birnam is the Birnam Oak, the last survivor of the wood featured in Shakespeare’s Macbeth.
Be brave like the lion and proud. Don’t even worry about who hates you, who resents you, and who conspires against you. Macbeth will never be defeated until Birnam Wood marches to fight you at Dunsinane Hill.
Back to the main road you can see the Beatrix Potter Exhibition and Garden, named after the English writer who spent her childhood holidays here. In the garden there’re sculptures representing some of its most important characters like for example the ones of The tale of Peter Rabbit.
The Dunkeld Bridge – built by Thomas Telford in 1809 – links Birnam to Dunkeld.
This town is dominated by the Dunkeld Cathedral, today partly ruined within a section hosting the parish church together with a little museum. Originally the village used to be the first ecclesiastical capital of medieval Scotland as the first King of Scotland – Kenneth MacAlpin – moved the bones of St Columba here around the middle of 9th century. Overlooking the river Tay, the Cathedral was then built from the 12th to the 16th century. Luckily, this one the only one building to don’t suffer any bid damage from The Battle of Dunkeld in 1689, fought between the Jacobites and a local garrison of the Cameronians who finally won.
In the 1700s were built the famous Little Houses along High Street that leads to The Cross, the old Market Square where today several shops are located. Here you can see the Memorial Fountain dedicated to George Murray 6th Duke of Atholl.

BIRNAM HILL -ADVERT FREE VIDEO !!!!!
The Highland villages of Dunkeld and Birnam straddle the River Tay and are surrounded by some of the finest woodlands in Scotland. However, more famously, Beatrix Potter wrote the 'Tale of Peter Rabbit' in Birnam. At auction [November 2008] an illustrated Beatrix Potter unnamed rabbit who had never featured in any of her books, sold for £15,600. Likewise, a Xmas card designed by Potter in 1893 featuring three guinea pigs in a basket, sold for a remarkable £12,600. This walk starts at Birnam (for Dunkeld) railway station, on the Perth-Inverness line and begins by walking through the famous 'B.P' gardens. This is the beginning of the ascent of the 404m Birnam Hill on the edge of the Highland boundary fault line: a walk through mainly deciduous woodlands passing around the eastern flank of the Hill before climbing from the south. A short detour leads to the ancient Stair Bridge and magnificent views across the Disney-esqe landscape to the turreted castle that is Rohallion Lodge, complete with lake and surrounded by colourful, forested hills. Returning to the ascent path which steepens with the final climb to the summit of the hill, where a huge cairn (also referred to as the King's Seat) awaits. Dramatic views ensue; both up Strath Tay to Dunkeld and the Highlands and down towards Perth. In this particular video however, its the autumnal colour views that are the reward. The direct descent from the cairn goes through first coniferous and then deciduous forest with a final slightly steep and slippery descent before returning to the village that sprang up in the Victorian era when the famous Victorian writer Potter spent her summer holidays there. Birnam and Birnam Hill were also made famous by Shakespeare in Macbeth (The Scottish Play). Macbeth shall never vanquishd be until Great Birnam wood to high Dunsinane hill Shall come against him.
