There's not a huge amount of gravel that will take you directly east from Callandar. This route is a fairly direct whack via the best cycle paths (avoiding indirect unscenic wobbles) around Dunblane, Alloa and Dunfermline, with some bonus gravel secteurs around Rosyth and a fun off-road way into west Edinburgh. The Alloa > Dunfermline bike path is inspiring for the quality of the infrastructure and, at a stretch, Clackamannanshire's rich post-industrial history.
For camping, if you don't mind a punchy climb to end your day, there are good wide open spaces in Glen Artney above Callandar. The slopes along the side of Loch Lubnaig are nice but quite steep. I grew up in Crieff but, beyond that, my knowledge of these airts isn't terrific.
Enioy! https://ridewithgps.com/routes/46726113
