Scot Lane runs on the northern bank of the reservoir. A pleasant, relatively newly planted hedge runs along this bank, and the views of the reservoir are lovely; you will be able to make out the dam from here on the opposite side of it.

Different experience on each side of the reservoir. The track on the west / southwestern side is shaded and slightly elevated, running along the edge of plantations, and Scot Lane on the eastern side is a bit more exposed. A full circular route of the reservoir is around 5 miles or so.
