If you are looking for an easier life cycle around the reservoir anticlockwise as this way you get the harder part out of the way in the first half of the ride and have an easier end to the ride when you might not have so much energy left.

Beautiful gravel path around the edge of the reservoir - a little hill thrown in for good measure.

Gets very busy!
