Parking can be found just off North Lane on the west side, and just south of the village of Fewston on the east side of the reservoir. Great walking route all the way around, with the best views from the east side.

Lindley Wood is a compensation reservoir, which means it is not linked to the supply of water to homes but is there to take excess water from Fewston and Swinsty reservoirs, which are nearby. This is why there is not much water in there.

I went on this walk and probably wouldn’t do it again. There are a couple of stiles you need to lift your dog over. The first farm I came across had an u n friendly German shepherd dog and was aggressive towards my dog. I was walking alone so not a pleasant experience. The next farm was the most unkempt farm I have seen. There was cattle wandering in the junk farm yard amongst abandoned cars and other white goods. The mud was awful and the whole place was very downtrodden and bleak. I would not recommend this walk.

This reservoir is one of the oldest in the Washbourn Valley; it was built between 1869 and 1876. The other three reservoirs here are Thruscross, Swinsty and Fewston. Walking around the reservoir is a truly aesthetic, soul-beautifying experience. The green wooded banks, woodland and reservoir paths and open countryside... what else would anyone want in life?... oh, sunsets here are unbelievable.

Sunrise Lakes emerges as a sanctuary for aquatic life and wildlife, set within the captivating expanse of North Yorkshire's picturesque terrain. This privately held fishing lake doubles as a scenic stroll destination at the fringes of Kirkby Overblow.

Swinsty Reservoir was completed in 1878, just before Fewston Reservoir, which is just upstream. Yorkshire Water own and manage both reservoirs. The circular path is suitable for all and very popular, and the surrounding area is managed for wildlife.

The track around the reservoir is for pedestrians only, no cycling !!

Lindley Wood Reservoir was the first of the four reservoirs in the Washburn Valley to be built. It was constructed by navvies between 1869 and 1876. In the summer of 2022 it dried up exposing a cracked mud bed. Lindley Wood acts to take in excess water from nearby Fewston and Swinsty Reserviors. As the country was in drought, there was no excess water to fill it.
