Der Fluss Garry hat sich bei Killiecrankie in eine Schlucht eingegraben; ein Felsen erinnert an einen waghalsigen Sprung eines Soldaten über die Schlucht.

Killiecrankie (schott.-gäl.: Coille Chneagaidh) ist ein Dorf in Perth and Kinross, Schottland am Fluss Garry. Es liegt am Pass von Killiecrankie an der A9.

Im Dorf steht ein Kraftwerk des Tummel Hydro-Electric Power Scheme. Ein Großteil des Ufers gehört dem National Trust for Scotland.

Während des Jakobitenaufstands 1689 wurde am 27. Juli 1689 die Schlacht von Killiecrankie am Nordrand des Dorfes ausgetragen. Donald MacBane, der für die Seite des Wilhelm III. von Oranien kämpfte, verlor die Schlacht und soll den Fluss an The Soldier’s Leap mit einem waghalsigen Sprung (über 5,5m) überquert haben.
