This is the view from Win Hill. A wonderful walk, up. Make it as easy or as hard as you like. The view is worth it whichever route you go up.

If you don't have a bike, you can drive up to Fairholmes and rent one from here to cycle around the dams. They also have trailers to put your toddler, (or canine friend) in. Great fun
