West Reservoir is used for open-water swimming during the summer, but I like to run round it on winter mornings, as the reservoir always seems to have a spooky mist covering it. Whenever I’ve been there, it’s been pan flat, so you get a great reflection of the London cityscape. From Highbury Fields, run along Newland Walk—an old railway line—to Clissold Park, one of London’s finest, with its own woodland trail. Then head to West Reservoir; dip a toe into Finsbury Park before heading back to Highbury Fields via Gillespie Park. That’s 10.5 km.

Not only is this cafe making tasty food, but you get to sit on the waterside and feel a little bit away from it all! There’s swimming here too but you have to book through Better leisure centres.

This is a local hidden gem. Highly recommended weather permitting. The reservoirs are really worth a visit, walk around, get a coffee at the Reservoir Centre where you can watch boats sailing and then walk on to the East Reservoir for a stroll around to see wildlife and enjoy light lunch in the recently opened cafe. It is a fantastic experience in the heart of London.

The West Reservoir and the New River are an amazing wetland resource -the adjacent grasslands, scrub, hedgerow and wildlife garden have considerable wildlife value. Sailing and kayaking courses here!

Beautiful new reservoir that has running/walking paths, a nice cafe and also outdoor wild swimming (not for the faint hearted). Look online to book for the swimming.
