워크햄프턴‬에서 가장 멋진 ‪10‬개의 호수

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

Nice ride out to Redlake, but then using a map, gps and standing on top of the hill, unable to find the track to Avon dam. Really disappointing.

Very photogenic spot

Burrator Reservoir is a stunning reservoir in Dartmoor. It sits on the southern side, as it was built to supply water to the people of Plymouth. Here there is a lovely little unnamed water fall coming into the reservoir off the thick wooded western hillside. There is also a little bench seat here. A great break spot if you're doing a lakeside trail.

Great place for a camp and swim - see the Dartmoor Camping Code: https://www.dartmoor.gov.uk/enjoy-dartmoor/outdoor-activities/camping/backpack-camping-code

Leat waterfall is a waterfall that can be seen at Burrator Reservoir, on the edge of Dartmoor National Park. It is formed by the water from the historic Devonport Leat, which was built in the 18th century to supply water to Plymouth Dockyard. The leat runs along the valley and ends at Burrator in a cascade of water that drops into the reservoir. The waterfall can be viewed from a footpath that follows the leat and crosses a bridge over it. The footpath also leads to the Burrator Discovery Centre, which offers exhibitions and displays about Burrator’s history, wildlife and culture. Leat waterfall is one of the attractions of Burrator Reservoir, which is a popular destination for families, nature enthusiasts, historians and Dartmoor lovers alike. The reservoir offers ample walks, views and wildlife, as well as fishing opportunities. You can also explore one of Dartmoor’s most spectacular tors, Sheepstor, which dominates Burrator and offers one of the most impressive views of the reservoir.

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.
