North Third Reservoir is only a 15-minute drive from Stirling, and the water is surrounded by typical beautiful Scottish landscape. There is a fine 3.4-mile (5.5-km) hike going around the reservoir that also takes in Lewis Hill on the east bank. The views from here on the west bank are super nice, with shoreline views out to some beautiful islands, wooded countryside, and the gentle bulk of Lewis Hill on the far bank.
