Great early morning walk.

Langsett Reservoir boasts well-maintained paths suitable for various abilities, making it ideal for walking, cycling, or even a leisurely stroll. The surrounding woodland and moorland offer diverse landscapes, changing beautifully with the seasons. The dam wall itself is an impressive feat of engineering, and walking across it provides great views of the reservoir and surrounding countryside.

A great walk. Free parking. Cafe across road and down hill a bit from car park

Beautiful woodland, popular with dog walkers and cyclists.

This reservoir is located on the edge of the Peak District. It's surrounded by rolling hills and greenery and is a wonderful spot for a stroll in nature. It's part of a series of reservoirs that supply fresh water to the region.

Digley Reservoir was constructed in the 19th century to supply water to the local area. The area is framed by rolling hills and lush vegetation and offers excellent opportunities for walking, cycling and bird-watching.

The embankment of Langsett Reservoir is 352m/1, 156ft long and has a depth of 35m/117ft, to the old river bed beneath. When full, the reservoir holds 59 million m3 or 1,409 million gallons of water. The castellated valvehouse at the northern end of the dam wall is supposed to have been modelled on the gatehouse of Lancaster Castle. The reservoir took 14 years to build, between 1889 and 1904. The reservoir is now controlled by Yorkshire Water, and its naturally acidic, brown water is treated at the modern Langsett Treatment Works just below the embankment wall to the right.
