ハーロウ貯水池での 周辺の簡単なハイキングとウォーキング

Great descent on a gravel bike, smooth but with some little drops from the occasional step. Very fun!

smooth gravel, good for gravel rides

Harlaw Reservoir is a popular spot for outdoor activities including walking, fishing, and wildlife watching. One of the highlights is a small embankment on the far side of the reservoir which offers stunning views of Threipmuir Reservoir. On weekends visitors you can get your hands on some homemade crepes from a local van parked near the Harlaw House Visitor Centre.

Pretty steep uphill from Threipmuir to Harlaw. Easy enough to walk up/down.

Quite a technical path that is appropriate slow gravel ride or mountain biking. But what a view!

Threipmuir Reservoir (west) & Harlaw Reservoir (east) where built in the mid-1800s to increase the water supply for the Edinburgh area. Both have great lakeside trails for a flatter run in the Pentlands.

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.
