It’s a really nice place to get to and have a café ride. It’s nice to just ride around the reservoir.

The only underpass far and wide, here you can get to the other side of the bank. Separate for pedestrians and cyclists.

Fantastic views over the water and a small beach. Fishermen in waders are often spotted here catching dinner.
