Eccup Reservoir is the largest body of water in Yorkshire. It's classified as a Site of Special Scientific Interest due to its abundance of rare plant species that protect over 150 important bird species.

It's surrounded by stunning woodland and features a network of well-marked trails, and is the perfect location for a family-friendly waterside stroll.
