    Pontsticill Reservoir is a great location for its scenic beauty and because it is the start of many hiking and biking trails. There is a nice trail that actually goes around the entire reservoir, but it does involve road walking too. When you do visit this location, beware of thefts from unattended vehicles and take valuables with you.
