The Cateran Trail is a 103-kilometre (64 mi)[3] circular long-distance walking route in central Scotland. The trail has no official beginning or end and can be joined at any stage.[4] The route was established, way-marked and is now maintained by, the Perth & Kinross Countryside Trust. A variety of terrain is covered by the trail including farmland, mountains and forest. The path itself follows old drovers' roads, minor paved roads and farm tracks and can be walked in 4 or 5 days.[5] It is now designated as one of Scotland's Great Trails by NatureScot.[1] As of 2018 it was estimated that around 8,000 people were using the trail each year.[6]
