Scenic Places - Lower Peirce Reservoir
Lower Peirce is serene and calm. It is beautiful.
This is the beginning of the 20 mins boardwalk.
The view is stunning.
On our way out, we saw some monkeys! Do not eat around this place as the monkeys will snatch your food away. We had a picnic here a few years ago, while my hubby was opening a packet of chips, a monkey jumped out and snatched it from him, within the splitting of an eye, the chips are gone. It is okay the chips are gone as long as my hubby is safe. Phew!
Fishing is allowed here. The arrow points to the fishing area.
