Glen Shee (Scottish Gaelic: Gleann Sith) is a glen in eastern Perthshire, Scotland, carrying the Shee Water. Its head lies where Gleann Taitneach and Glen Lochsie meet, about 2 kilometres northwest of the Spittal of Glenshee, and the glen runs southeast to Bridge of Cally, where it merges with Strathardle to form Glen Ericht. It was once known as the glen of the fairies, taking its name from the Gaelic sith, meaning fairy, after an old meeting place at a standing stone behind the present-day church, called Dun Shith or Hill of the Fairies.
