Mugdock Reservoir

Highlight • Viewpoint

The final point of the Katrine Aqueducts as the water travels from The Trossachs to Milngavie to serve drinking water to the people of Glasgow.
Built in the late 1800's, these reservoirs are a beautiful spot for a walk or cycle with good tracks following the perimeter.
