No wizard answered but magic seems to surround the Barkhamsted reservoir.
Each time I visit the Saville Dam I’m drawn to its fantasy setting.
The surrounding forest and sky appear to intentionally provide a complementary backdrop to the small castle at the center.
On this day the sky and water appeared to create an illusion of jumping into another dimension.
The compass across the street lending to the mystery.
Next visit I plan to try some of the hiking in the area in Peoples Forest. I hear it’s like stepping into a fairytale.
According to the Westbrook Library website “In addition, just a few minutes down the road, there is also a great hiking trail to explore. The trail runs down through the woods alongside some streams and down to several waterfalls. The trail is relatively easy to traverse and leads you to see some wonderful views.”
Here’s my blog of other fun activities to do in the area like kayaking!
