Glenfarg is a small village in Perth and Kinross, Scotland, tucked into a narrow glen at the southern foothills of the Ochil Hills. Its setting gives steep, wooded slopes and open pastoral views that make it popular with walkers and birdwatchers; the surrounding burns and small reservoirs add to the attractive, slightly secluded character.
Historically the settlement grew as a rural community and was shaped by changing transport links - it was once served by a local railway and later by improved roads - and today many residents commute to Perth or Edinburgh. Local life still centres on farming, the village hall and community events, while hill-walkers and cyclists often pass through, keeping a modest flow of visitors and a strong village identity.
