A walk that includes 3 reservoirs, woodland and moors. Starting in Low Bradfield we walk along Agden reservoir, before heading down to Dale Dike. Then it’s up a hill to cover some of the Sheffield Country Walk, before walking through Ughill and making our way down to the third reservoir of the day, Dam Flask. At the end we can stop for a drink at The Plough if there is interest.
