The Big Aylesbury Directory

"Originally built to serve the canal system, the reservoirs have become one of the best birdwatching spots in southern England"

A great area for walking too, either beside the canal or around any, or indeed all, of the reservoirs. The Grand Union Canal runs along one side of the three reservoirs, with both the Aylesbury Arm and the Wendover Arm of the canal joining the main arm nearby.
