The path along the water is a bit challenging. You have to climb at this point....

Burrator Discovery Centre is a visitor centre located near Burrator Reservoir, on the edge of Dartmoor National Park. It opened in 2014 as part of the Burrator Historic and Natural Environment project. The centre offers exhibitions and displays about Burrator’s history, wildlife and culture. You can see spoken history, an interactive screen and a children’s discovery zone. You can also explore the conservation garden, which features a totem pole and a range of plants found on Dartmoor. The centre is open from 10am to 4pm daily, except for Saturdays and alternate Thursdays. You can also buy permits for fishing at Burrator Reservoir, which is one of the most tranquil and picturesque natural angling venues in the South West. The reservoir is surrounded by woodlands, wetlands and moorlands, and offers ample walks and views.

This is a tranquil little place, excellent for a walk, run or cycle. Beautiful scenery with lots of viewing points. Surrounded by woodland, it's often more sheltered here than on the high moor. A road runs round the reservoir, so if you are walking, be aware of traffic.

Burrator Dam was built in 1898. According to information boards in the nearby Burrator Discovery Centre, the dam is 23.4m/77ft high and 114m/375ft wide and is built from granite and concrete.

Burrator Reservoir is situated within Dartmoor, and the tranquil water and surrounding mixed woodland contrasts sharply with the open moor and the rugged Dartmoor tors. A trip here can be combined with a walk across the moors, or enjoyed as a trip of its own with plenty to do – from walking and taking in the views, to fishing for rainbow and brown trout (just be sure to get a permit, available online or by calling South West Lakes). Devon has relatively few lakes, but the situation and quality of these make them a hidden gem in Devon’s crown.

The Burrator Discovery Centre is full of useful and interesting information about both the reservoir and the surrounding area.

This is the 'other' dam on Burrator Reservoir. It was built across the Meavy and Sheepstor Brook in 1894 to create the reservoir which provides clean drinking water to the inhabitants of Plymouth. This is a popular area with walkers. The route around the reservoir edge is delightful and easily accessible.

The dam was finished here in 1898 to block the River Meavy at Burrator Gorge to create the Burrator Reservoir. The reservoir now not only provides drinking water to the city of Plymouth but is a beautiful place to walk. The route around the water's edge, through mixed woodland, can be completed in either direction and is very different to walking the surrounding moors and tors. It is perfect for families and those who would prefer an easier walk as it is flat with a good surface.
