Tips

Cycling

Good well-graded gravel track up from Hopes Reservoir. One ford that's rideable in summer. A couple of steep bits, but generally an OK gradient past the reservoir, through a little valley and up to the top of the moor.

Cycling

Cycled over from Carfraemill, challenging climbs and descents, but views of the reservoir worth the effort. Sounds of the bird life abound. Take care descending towards the reservoir, gravel is loose in places, stay in control. Climb back is a tough one.
