Middlesex Fells Reservoir Trail
Cycling Route
Details
5.55 mi
736 ft
5.94 Miles, Moderate difficulty.
Anecdotally the most popular trail in the Fells. This trail is mostly singletrack, although not as rocky and technical as the Skyline Trail. The Reservoir trail makes a loop around the Western Fells, but it takes a tighter route around the Winchester Reservoirs. Like the Skyline trail, this trail has many intersections so keep your eye on the orange markers.
