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

Gladhouse Reservoir is just a short drive from Edinburgh and just to the west of the Moorfoot Hills. This peaceful wildlife haven offers visitors great hiking and cycling opportunities.

It is a scenic, tranquil section that is a delight for the eyes and soul.

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.

Loganlea reservoir is well positioned within the Pentlands, you can only see the hills from its banks.

The Glencorse Reservoir is held back by an earth dam built in the early 1820's. The water was used to power the mills downstream and provide drinking water to Edinburgh and the surrounding area.

Completed in 1851, Loganlea Reservoir is dammed by a wall standing 59 feet (18 m) high, and can hold 118 million imperial gallons of water. Today it's a popular fishing spot with Loganlea Fishery, and is perfect for fly fishing trout, either from bank or boat.

East to West takes you up a short climb through the trees, which still has a good view of the reservoir below. Not the smoothest in places but other nearby roads make up for that.

Beautiful Loch in the middle of the Pentlands
