Craigvinean Forest is located west of Dunkeld, Perth and Kinross, Scotland, on the A9.[1] It is accessed through a track at the foot of Deuchary Hill. The River Braan bisects the forest, which forms part of the Tay Forest Park, one of six forest park in Scotland.[2]
The Hermitage is located in a section of the forest.[1]
Ossian, a third-century Celtic bard, whose mother was turned into a deer by Fer Doirich, is said to have inhabited a cave which can be found on the north bank of the Braan located upstream from Ossian's Hall of Mirrors, a folly built in 1758 which is replete with Corinthian architrave and cornice.[3] This folly was built on a horse shoe plan facing a waterfall and so amplifies the roaring sound of water.
The 2019 racing game Dirt Rally 2.0 features point-to-point stages based on accurate reproductions of around 25km (16miles) of forestry tracks within Craigvinean.
