Bohernabreena Lower Reservoir

Highlight • Lake

A long reservoir area in the quiet Glenasmole valley, where wide gravel paths run completely car-free along the Upper and Lower Reservoirs. The landscape combines open water, pine forest and rugged hills, with regular sightlines towards the Dublin Mountains. The route is flat and quiet, ideal as an introduction to the mountain area or as a relaxing nature section on a longer tour. Birds, waterfowl and sometimes deer on the slopes give the area a distinct nature reserve feel.

Bohernabreena Upper Reservoir

Highlight • Lake

The Upper Reservoir is the highest lake in the Glenasmole valley and feels a lot wilder and more remote than its lower neighbour. At this point on the south-eastern shore, you are riding deep into the heart of the catchment area, where the wooded slopes of the Dublin Mountains seem to drop straight into the deep, dark water.
