Codnor Park Reservoir

Highlight • Natural

Beautiful reservoir with free parking & easy path all the way around the water. Plenty of wild water fowl and birds. Well worth extending the walk along the old Cromford Canal into Butterley Country Park.

A flat walk with interesting history of Iron Works, Reservoirs, Canals and a Canal Tunnel through which the barges were propelled by legging.
The area was visited again on March 1 2022 but followed a variation on this route.
