Making life better by water
Discover Tring Reservoirs, a Site of Special Scientific Interest, managed by Herts & Middlesex Wildlife Trust.
Explore the towpaths of the Wendover and Aylesbury Canal Arms of the Grand Union Canal and visit the pretty villages of Marsworth and Wilstone.
Tring Reservoirs are renowned for their birdlife. Great Crested Grebes, swans and herons are usually on view, and in winter there are many kinds of ducks and a huge gull roost. In autumn the mud banks provide a ‘bed and breakfast' stop for waders migrating southwards.
