This is a route around Yorkshire Water's Scar House Reservoir, near Lofthouse in Nidderdale, North Yorkshire. Going clockwise around the reservoir, the first part of the route is relatively flat on tarmac and gravel surfaces, which creates a good out and back route. After crossing Angram Reservoir Dam Wall the surface becomes much rougher with cross-cambers.
