Blairgowrie is a market town in Perth and Kinross, Scotland, sitting in the broad agricultural valley of Strathmore on the banks of the River Ericht. It forms a close pair with the neighbouring burgh of Rattray, and retains a compact town centre with stone buildings and the remains of old mill structures that hint at its industrial past.
The town is best known for surrounding soft‑fruit and orchard farming and serves as a handy base for visitors heading into the Cairngorms and the nearby Angus Glens and Glenshee ski area. Outdoor routes such as the Cateran Trail pass close by, and a lively local calendar of markets and Highland Games keeps a strong community and cultural life.
