There are four reservoirs in the Washburn Valley, and this one is the northernmost. What distinguishes this one from the other three is also the fact that this one was built in 1966 while the other ones in the 19th century. The reservoir belongs to Yorkshire Water, the water company.

From Reservoir Road in particular, the views of the reservoir are stunning - particularly given that you are high above. Sunsets here are just something else!

Undoubtedly the most scenic of the Washburn reservoirs with the moorland backdrop to the north. The circular route around the reservoir from the car park is about 5 miles, the track on the southwestern side runs along the edge of plantations and offers some shade from the sun and shelter from the elements. The track on the northeastern side is more exposed, and if you do the whole circuit you will cross over Far Comb Hill and the plantation along the edge of the reservoir at Whit Moor - a great route.
