    Tips

    Not very wide in places, but a great track runs all the way from Thruscross Reservoir to Blubberhouses car park. You'll get the best views of the imposing Thruscross Reservoir dam, and the constant babbling of the River Washburn as it snakes through the adjoining woods and plantations makes for a peaceful walk.
