Garrow is a clachan in the Breadalbane region of Perth and Kinross, Scotland. It is located about midway between Kenmore, 4.5 miles (7.2 kilometres) to the northwest, and Amulree, 5.3 mi (8.5 km) to the southeast. It sits below the River Quaich, which flows into nearby Loch Freuchie, itself situated between Garrow and Amulree, 2.3 mi (3.7 km) away. Garrow's elevation is about 314 metres (1,030 feet).[1]

Garrow Bridge, a single segmental arch bridge that crosses the River Quaich, is a Category C listed structure dating to the early 19th century.[2]

Garrow Hill, which rises to 730 m (2,400 ft), stands to the south of Garrow.[3]
