Errwood Reservoir

Highlight • Structure

Errwood Reservoir is a drinking-water reservoir in the Peak District National Park, within the county of Derbyshire and very close to the boundary with Cheshire. The reservoir was the second of two reservoirs built in the Goyt Valley, the other one being its neighbour Fernilee Reservoir. 

There is a beautiful 5-mile (8 km) circular walk around Errwood reservoir with some amazing panoramic views and a lovely 3-mile (4.8 km) circular walk around Fernilee reservoir if you wanted to combine both.

Wow... I tried to shortcut my way and ended up under the rhododendron trees, the branches are amazing and it created a place that feels special

There are two pictures of two different bridges in the photo files. They are both on the same route and they are both good resting spots as such. Lovely area in anyway!

I was surprised to see this and can only surmise that it was built by the owners of the grand mansion that was Errwood Hall which is nearby.
