What visitors say
A lovely circular route suitable for a wheeling part and all terrain mobility scooter or wheelchair. The gates would limit access for some. I managed on my Robooter e60 pro. The little visitor centre offers tea and coffee with useful information on the area and other attractions. Parking is at the top of a hill down to the Reservoir visitor centre and the footpaths. Other routes are into the surrounding woodland and not all are wheelchair accessible.

The park is very scenic and the walk around the reservoir is relaxing. There is parking available, with few slots for disabled also. The road leading to the park from the main road is very narrow and we had to squeeze through past 2 of the oncoming vehicles. Expect that the ride was enjoyable.

It is such a hidden gem. There is free car parking costing only £1 which needs to be paid at the visitor centre. The walks are beautiful offering nature at its best. There is the Moor, the forested lands and the circular walk around the reservoir. Very well maintained and clean. Can easily pass 3 hours going through the various trails. We went towards ogden clough and spent around an hour waking through the Moor. Thoroughly enjoyable experience.
