Scar House Reservoir and Dam

Highlight • Viewpoint

Great scenery and impressive dam. The little café has limited opening times and is cash only. Also a nice place for a walk and apparently some good mountain biking around here.

Highlight (Segment) • Climb

Fun but over too quickly! Get ready to put your saddle back up and drop the gears down.. It is followed by an evil climb that is a real challenge …
