It's a pretty village with plenty of tourist facilities, chief of which being the majestic Falls of Dochart, a series of rapids which tumble down river and underneath a bridge. This view has to be one of Scotland's most photographed.

Paddle wise, Killin is a great destination. Being surrounded by large hills, they offer protection from the prevailing westerly winds. This can make it a good place to go if the wind is not favourable for Kenmore at its eastern end. 

Paddleboarding at Killin is all about contrasts. By getting in, next to the Killin Hotel (park at the Killin Town Hall car park) you start on the Killin canal. This gives ideal, slow moving water to start with, ideal for beginners. As you paddle towards the Loch, under a series of small bridges the terrain opens up with lovely views. An island just before the Loch itself means you take enjoy a leisurely circumnavigation while taking in the views, at the same time not having to fully commit to the more exposed waters of the loch itself. Note that the waters of Loch Tay as you reach it can be extremely shallow for a short distance so there is a chance of getting a deep fin run aground in the soft mud.
