Blair Atholl International Scouts Jamborette
Over 1000 scouts from all over the world have gathered at a picturesque corner of Perthshire for the Blair Atholl International Jamborette.
The tranquil grounds of Blair Castle have been transformed, with participants from 19 countries.
Around 1250 scouts and adults are taking part in the event, and Scottish scouts have been paired with counterparts from as far afield as Japan and Canada.
Also taking part are youngsters from far-flung countries including Namibia, Hong Kong and the USA.
A spokesman said, "This year Scottish Scouting has experienced its biggest growth in membership in over 50 years. The Jamborette helps to develop international scouting friendships while giving Scottish and overseas scouts the opportunity to take part in a range of adventurous activities and challenges."
