River Earn at Comrie

A river of Perth and Kinross, the River Earn emerges from the eastern end of Loch Earn at St. Fillans. It flows 32 miles (51 km) eastwards through Strath Earn, eventually meeting the River Tay at the head of the Firth of Tay near Bridge of Earn. On its course it passes the settlements of Comrie and Crieff and is crossed by fine bridges at Kinkell, Dalreoch, Dupplin and Bridge of Earn. The 17 MW St. Fillans Power Station and 4 MW Dalchonzie Power Station are located on the upper reaches of the river, both part of the Breadalbane Hydro-Electric Power Scheme.
