.Salmon Ladder at Pitlochry, Perthshire.
Just a short drive from the Luxury Holiday Homes at Tigh Na Loan, Fearnan, Loch Tay you will find the small town of Pitlochry which is famous for its hydro-electric dam and salmon ladder.
The ladder was specially constructed to allow the salmon to by-pass the dam and make their way upstream to Loch Faskally. It is estimated that approximately 5000 salmon use the ladder each year between April and late September to return to their spawning grounds. A special viewing chamber allows visitors a close up view of the travelling wild salmon.
