Tips

March 20, 2020

Hiking

Trentabank Reservoir supplies the town of Macclesfield with drinking water. Although a working environment, Trentabank and the conifer forests are a haven for wildlife. The site has more than 20 breeding pairs of herons and is one of the best places to see them in the Peak District. You can also observe birds of prey, red deer and wading birds at certain times of year.
