My best memory is of preparing a group of kids for an expedition along the canal to Gas Street Basin and back. The Reser was ideal for safe canoe training ; also for testing a new waterproof watch!

There is other entrances from Rotton Park Road and Icknield Port Road . As well as Reservoir Road . Path goes all around the reservoir . Stunning views of the Birmingham skyline. Go back after a year.

It’s a very big park good to walk around and have some fresh air the big lake is so beautiful and so refreshing

The path around the reservoir is mostly dirt so it's indeed great for running or cycling but not so much after rainy days.

Fantastic spot. 1and 3/4 miles all the way around. Lots of wildlife too. Coots, Canadian geese etc. The dogs love it here... But remember to take your poop bags x lol x

Good for runners - one lap is approx 2.50km so you can easily check your performance . Surface is Tarmac but can be slippery on wet/muddy days.

Walk, jog or run around The Vale Lake: the lakeside path is 500m-long; the flat lakeside path on the west and then the uphill bit on the east is 800m-long. Do the maths for your desired distance! - Iván Farías
