Craigvinean Forest is located Шаблон:Convert west of Dunkeld, Perth and Kinross, Scotland, on the A9.[1] It is accessed through a track at the foot of Deuchary Hill. The River Braan bisects the forest, which forms part of the Tay Forest Park, one of six forest park in Scotland.[2]

The Hermitage is located in a section of the forest.[1]
