Spittal of Glenshee is where the confluence of many small streams flowing south out of the Grampians form the Shee Water. Known as the glen of the fairies it takes its name from the Gaelic " shith " meaning fairy. The village provides a stopping place on the Cateran Trail waymarked long distance walking footpath which provides a 64 mile circuit in the glens of Perthshire and Angus. The A93 is a major road in Scotland and the highest public road in the United Kingdom. It runs north from Perth through Blairgowrie and Rattray, then through the Grampian Mountains by way of Glenshee, the Cairnwell Pass and Glen Clunie to Braemar in Aberdeenshire.
