    North Esk Reservoir is an easy 5k walk from Carlops village. You can park your car in the village and choose one of the two main paths or do a circular walk. Easy to intermediate terrain with some steep hilly parts as well. The reservoir is a gem.

      Spectacularly beautiful and peaceful. Lots of places to sit down. Incredible that this is so close to the big Edinburgh.
