Fernworthy Reservoir is home to myriad wildlife and boasts ancient stone cairns, hut circles and a submerged clapper bridge. The lake provides important wildlife habitats for many rare species including marsh fritillary butterfly and the bee hawk moth. You can also see birds such as snipe, heron and grebe all year round.
