Bear’s Big Adventure Trail 2026
Join us on Bear’s Big Adventure Trail – a fantastic interactive sculpture trail around Perth and Kinross.
22 June – 2 September 2026
The trail is in support of YMCA Tayside and the youth work provision we provide young people aged 8 to 25 across Perth and Kinross.
Bear’s Big Adventure Trail 2026
Bears Big Adventure Trail is now live! Find vibrant painted Bears designed by talented artists all across Perth and Kinross.
The Bears have been placed in streets, parks, and public spaces, transforming our community into an open air gallery which will contribute to the social, cultural and economic growth of Perth and Kinross by attracting visitors to our beautiful area.
Each Bear on the trail has been sponsored by a generous local business whose contribution has made this trail possible!
Our small bear cubs have been painted by local schools as part of our learning programme which engaged primary schools and community groups all across Perth and Kinross. They’re smaller in size but big on creativity!
See a sculpture you love? Our bear sculptures will be sold at auction on 17 September at Scone Palace to raise much-needed funds for YMCA Tayside, supporting a variety of youth work services to young people aged 8-25, mainly from disadvantaged backgrounds.
