スミディショー貯水池のおすすめランニングルート

あらゆる方向に見渡す限りの荒野の素晴らしい景色が広がっており、訪れる価値は間違いなくあります。

A little gem of a reservoir definitely worth a visit.

Nice easy walk around with the tranquil sound of the water lapping at the shores.

James - sorry - just noticed the question; a number of options - the full route is from Consett - Hownsgill car park (Morrisons - but watch the duration - I think you have 7 hours before fines kick in); you can park at Rowley, Healeyfiled or Waskerley and work your way back to any of those reasonably easily; one thing to watch is that they've not put a sign up to stop you taking the link from the C3C to the bridleway that takes you over Bolt's Law - it was never really public access but cuts out a lot of riding; just bear in mind you might get turned round. Another option is to park up on Meadow's Edge where the bridleways cross the road.

Great views on a clear day from the summit and nice easy walk.

Tower and overflow when the reservoir is too full

Views across the reservoir

A quiet picnic area alongside the Waskerley Beck with lots of parking. A number of walks are possible from here including the Family Walk, an easy circular route on footpaths accessible for pushchairs and wheelchairs, 1.5 miles long.
