Hiking

Located south of the village, the surroundings of the reservoir are ideal for a peaceful route around the water and enjoying the wildlife. This infrastructure was built in the early 20th century.

Hiking

Castle Carrock Reservoir is a 43-acre, active reservoir that supplies drinking water to the city of Carlisle. It was completed in 1909. It is a beautiful area sitting just south of Castle Carrock village. It is nestled in woodland and has a scenic, popular 2-mile walking loop around its edges. Though the path can get boggy, the views out across the water provide a peaceful and tranquil ambience.
