Errol Station Link

Construction of the path from Errol village to Errol Station is now complete and the path is being well used.  A small problem appears to be damage to the verges from rabbits or horses.  Path users are asked to help with maintenance by tramping in holes.  A formal opening ceremony will follow later  this summer.  The project is being funded by the Scottish Government & the European Community Rural Tayside LEADER 2007-2013 Programme, Perth & Kinross Countryside Trust, Perth & Kinross Quality of Life Trust and COGG.

Perth - Willowgate Right of Way

Work is underway to improve a very old right of way that includes a riverside path link from Perth City to the cafe and fishery at Willowgate, situated on the banks of the Tay beside Walnut Grove and the Friarton Bridge on the East Edge of Perth. Willowgate was formerly a working salmon station operated by, and still controlled by Tay Salmon Fisheries.
