1.7 mile loop of pavement around a pristine reservoir. Excellent for walking, running (and biking when the trails are muddy.) Not everyone obeys the posted direction or division of bike/pedestrian but it’s generally not very crowded and you can easily navigate the scofflaws :) There are several benches in shaded park like areas to contemplate the semi natural beauty, many with a good view of the potentially snow capped San Gabriels. Connects with trails in Oak Canyon Nature Preserve and (across Canyon Rim) Deer Canyon.

A wonderful place to checkout during the early morning or just about sunset. A nice oasis from the busy life. A mostly flat walking trial around the reservoir with several seating areas scattered throughout the trail to enjoy the wonderful natural landscape. A drinking fountain is available along the trail. I recommend exploring during the early morning and/or late afternoon as the trail is not very busy or empty with other walkers. Beautiful houses backup along some portions of the trail. Several information plaques are scattered throughout the trail regarding the importance of the reservoir and local ecosystem.

1.7 miles of walking/running/biking path around beautiful Walnut Canyon Reservoir. Lots of flowers and plants in the area. I walked to the reservoir area via Oak Canyon Nature Center after 25 mins hiking in Heritage Trail. However I believe there should be other ways to access to the reservoir. There is few seating areas, which you may use to enjoy the beautiful reservoir. No restrooms along the path. The path is stroller friendly. It is good for walking dogs as well.
