Killiecrankie

:"See also Killiecrankie, Tasmania."

Killiecrankie (Gaelic: "Coille Chneagaidh") is a village in Perth and Kinross, Scotland on the River Garry. It lies at the Pass of Killiecrankie, by the A9 road. The village is home to a power station forming part of the Tummel Hydro-Electric Power Scheme. Much of the riverbank is owned by the National Trust for Scotland.

In 1689, during the Jacobite Rebellion, the Battle of Killiecrankie was fought on the northern edge of the village. The Highland charge of the Jacobites took the government forces under General Hugh MacKay by surprise and they were completely overwhelmed in only 10 minutes. Donald MacBean, one of William of Orange's supporters, having lost the contest, is said to have cleared the pass, from one bank to the other, at the "The Soldier's Leap". The battle, disastrous as it was to the government forces, was in reality the end of the insurrection, for the controlling and commanding genius of the rebellion John Graham of Claverhouse, Viscount Dundee was killed in the battle.

An eponymous folk song commemorates the battle. A 1966 recording by The Corries was a pioneering use of the music video.
