Alyth is a pleasant little Perthshire town lying at the foot of the Braes o' Angus. Passing under the old Roman Bridge, the Alyth Burn runs through the town centre and the park beyond. The tiny Alyth Folk Museum overlooking the burn, houses a collection of agricultural and domestic artefacts. Above the town on Barry Hill there is an Iron Age fort, part of a series of hilltop forts throughout Fife and Angus. Legend has it that Queen Guinevere was imprisoned here. There is a steep-sided, wooded valley further up the Alyth Burn called Den of Alyth. This gorge was carved out during the Ice Age and can be wet underfoot. Alyth now sports three excellent 18-hole golf courses and one 9-hole.
