스킵턴‬에서 가장 멋진 ‪6‬개의 호수

There is no entrance to the steeper part except to shimmy around fences. We thought the hike straight up was very rocky with no direct path. Muddy and slippery. We turned around when we couldn’t find a clear path at the top. I would say this is not easy. Unless we were on some other trail.

Run round the reservoir on decent tracks or better still head up onto the moor behind to Crookrise or Embsay Crag - both great routes with amazing views

This reservoir, which supplies water to the Skipton town area, has quite a lot of character because of the proud hills surrounding it. It is a great place for an easy jog around it on tracks and paths here, but also a good place to start if you're heading further into the hills.

This reservoir, one of the two Barden reservoirs in the area, was opened in 1882, and supplies water to Bradford. A classic British moorland reservoir, it's easy to walk around and enjoy the views. On its east side, there is a dam with a wide flat track, but all the paths and footways around the reservoir will be easy to for most walkers. Enjoy!

It is a great place for an easy walk around it on tracks and paths here, but also a good place to start if you're heading further into the hills (Embsay Crag is not too far from here). In the summer months, you will likely see sailing boats on the reservoir; a sailing club operates from here.
