Torduff Reservoir
Enjoy a circular walk around the pretty Torduff Reservoir on this walk in Edinburgh.
You can start the walk from the parking area in Bonaly Country Park. From here it is a short stroll to the reservoir where you can pick up a 1.5 mile circular trail around the water. There's an impressive dam and lovely views of across the water to the surrounding Pentland Hills. At the southern end there's also nice views of the adjacent Clubbiedean reservoir.
