    Tips

    October 11, 2023

    These two reservoirs were built in the early 1900s in order to provide the local area with water.

    These two reservoirs in particular are no longer in use, and the land in which they stood is currently being reverted to its natural state.

    Special consideration is being paid to ensure the flow of the river is going back to its original path, which should ensure the surrounding ecosystem returns to balance, improving the area's biodiversity.
