앙그램 저수지 주변 최고의 워킹 & 하이킹 경로

Cafe open 9 till 5, seven days a week.

Wonderful cafe with great food. High above the gorge, it has glass floor panels where you can see the river beneath. Well worth a stop.

The village is located in Upper Nidderdale, North Yorkshire. It is a quiet place that is surrounded by beautiful countryside.

The village of Lodge on the edge of the valley had originally been established around a grange farm as part of the Cistercian Byland Abbey in medieval times. Occupied until the 1920's there are plaques against the ruined buildings and a small map on a display board showing you the locations of them. remains of the five buildings can still be seen and the ruined houses, with their stone flagged floors and old kitchen ranges they would have a bleak and simple lifestyle.

There is a small shelter on the West side of the Dam along the access wall which has seats inside ideal for a picnic out of the wind and rain! (Although the birds also agree)

The reservoir was built to supply water to the Bradford area of West Yorkshire. It was built by Bradford Corporation between 1904 and 1919, under an Act of Parliament in 1890 which also authorised the corporation to construct three other reservoirs in upper Nidderdale.

Scar House Reservoir is located in Nidderdale, North Yorkshire, England. The dam that forms Scar House Reservoir is an impressive structure. Here are some key points about Scar House Reservoir's dam: Construction: The construction of Scar House Reservoir began in 1921 and was completed in 1936. The purpose of the reservoir was to supply water to the Bradford area. Height and Type: The dam is an earth embankment dam, which means it is constructed using compacted earth. The height of Scar House Dam is approximately 72 meters (236 feet), making it one of the tallest dams in England. Reservoir Capacity: Scar House Reservoir has a capacity of around 40 billion liters (8.8 billion gallons) of water. The reservoir is part of a network of reservoirs in the area that collectively serve the purpose of water supply. Water Source: The reservoir collects water from the surrounding hills and moorlands, storing it for supply to the cities and towns downstream, particularly Bradford. Recreation: Apart from its primary function of water supply, Scar House Reservoir and its surrounding area also offer recreational opportunities. The reservoir is situated in a scenic landscape, making it a popular destination for walkers and nature enthusiasts. Management: The reservoir and dam are managed by Yorkshire Water, a company responsible for providing water and wastewater services in the Yorkshire region.

Good footpaths for the majority of the walk all the way to Scar House reservoir

Great to spectate after heavy rainfall in the area

A fantastic 30ft waterfall here on Great Gill here. Unexpected, but definitely worth stopping for... this is not directly on the path, but just a tiny bit off it. Enjoy the show!

This shooting house used to look genuinely ugly - rotting, falling apart, broken windows... a few years back, it was renovated, so it's looking much better these days! It is in a spectacular position here, with magnificent views over Upper Nidderdale.

It's Nidderdale, but it sure feels like you were in the actual Dales. The wind-swept, heather-surrounded summit (453m) gives fantastic views, particularly of Little Whernside, but look in any direction and you will be happy.

Completed in 1936 Scar House Reservoir was built to supply water to the Bradford area. It was built after Angram reservoir which is directly upstream and after Gouthwaite reservoir located a few miles downstream. The dam is 55m high in the middle.

Angram reservoir was begun in 1904 but due to the outbreak of WW1 it took until 1917 to complete it. It's made using concrete pillars and huge stone block dressed in stone cladding. Look out for Curlews, Redshank and Meadow Pippets which all nest in this area.

Intricately designed using over one million tonnes of stone.

Great fun to walk the gorge, there are a number of other activities on offer including abseiling and via ferrata which are also highly recommended!

Amazing architecture in a beautiful secluded valley.

Great campsite with good facilities and friendly service. The gorge is definitely worth checking out with plenty of different outdoorsy activities to try.

How Stean Gorge is one of Nidderdale’s natural wonders. This spectacular limestone ravine, carved out by thousands of years of waterflow, is up to 30 feet (nine metres) deep in places and has caves, narrow paths, and dizzying bridges to explore. There is also a café, outdoor activity centre, and campsite.

Scar House Reservoir’s dam was the largest in Britain when it was finished in 1936. Measuring 1,800 feet (549 metres) long and 170 feet (52 metres) high, the reservoir was constructed to supply Bradford’s booming mills, along with Angram Reservoir, which is a short distance up the River Nidd. These days, you will find the dam and reservoir to be an impressive spectacle nestled amidst stunning scenery.
