    Tips

    Mountain biking

    A gorgeous spot to sit and rest a while, taking in a marvellous view of the Fairoak Pools and the wildlife that calls it home.

    Look out for Canada geese, moorhen and coots as well as mallards on the water.

    It's easy to get here from the trail centre: simply follow the signs for the green-rated Fairoak trail and they will lead you along the wide gravel shared use path to this point.
