スレイップミュア貯水池でののおすすめウォーキング＆ハイキングルート

Stunning views. Path gets very gravelly so care needed if you are less experienced off-road

After the peaks it's all flat terrain and definitely more busy on a dry day. Walk the way back after the last peak if you prefer the challenge of it.

Nestled amongst the Pentland Hills, Glencorse Reservoir is incredibly picturesque. It was built between 1820 and 1824 to provide water to mills in the area and supply drinking water to Edinburgh. Today, the reservoir still supplies water to 450,000 people. The reservoir was created by constructing a dam, which is 77 feet (23.5 m) at its highest point.

Loganlea Reservoir was completed in 1851. It is fed by the logan Burn and the water then flows into the larger Glencorse Reservoir. It's one of a series of reservoirs in the Pentland Hills built in the 1800s to provide water for the growing city of Edinburgh. Loganlea reservoir is well positioned within the Pentlands, you can only see the hills from its banks.

Redford Bridge crosses between Bravelaw Marsh to the west and Threipmuir Reservoir to the east. It's a useful access point to the Pentland Hills from the north.

Hare Hill at 449 m is a small but prominent summit to the north of the main Pentland Hills ridge. From the summit there are great views north over Edinburgh and south into the Pentlands. It makes a nice short loop from Threipmuir Reservoir or can be tagged onto a longer loop including the Kips to the north.

Harlaw Reservoir was constructed between 1843 and 1848, at the same time as the larger Threipmuir Reservoir upstream. It's a simple gravity earth dam construction that adds to the volume of water available for Edinburgh.

Threipmuir Reservoir was dammed and formed between 1843 and 1848. It was constructed to provide water for Edinburgh.
