Lovely walk around Upper and Lower Rivington reservoirs. Saw a heron catching more fish than the fishing event taking place on the Upper reservoir. Priceless! Beautiful bleeding bluebells (Keith) and cottonball clouds. Finished walk at the excellent Great barn tea rooms with sit down waitress service in/outside for a late afternoon lunch/early tea. Great day out.

Great walk around the reservoir, the dogs were a bit tired after and slept. There are paths. Mostly tarmac, be careful parking on the road it is quite busy. Keep dogs on leads....

This can be part of a short or longer walk around the Rivington area. Plenty of bird life to see.

Really beautiful place to walk. Parking isn't great but there are some areas available.

We visited the Terrace Garden , sadly in a state of decay but still worth a visit.
