アビーヒルのおすすめツーリングルート

North lake is full of wildlife

great flat stretch to relax

Pleasant and enjoyable ride whilst taking in the sights. Early morning is best time to avoid pedestrians, walkers exercising around the lake and people walking their dogs.

The motorway right besides is quite noise, which disturbs the experience considerably. Also the part closer to the national bowl is a bit shabby. For the rest quite green pseudo-nature, but relaxing by bike.

An effort was made here to create a varied lake with a path around. It is quite nice, but as everywher ein the city the feeling of 'artificial' is quite strong.

A bit cumbersome with the bike and more intended for hikers - easier to stay on the path. But a nice idea to make the surrounding a bit more varied.

Willen Lake North is part of the larger Willen Lake in Milton Keynes. The north side is well-known for its wildlife, particularly bird species, and offers quieter walking paths for nature lovers. The lake also includes scenic views of the famous Peace Pagoda, a Buddhist monument built in 1980 by the Nipponzan Myohoji order, which is one of the most iconic landmarks in the area.

Lodge Lake was created in 1981 to prevent Loughton Brook flooding the downstream area. It now has a park area that is popular as a recreational hub, especially with the Trim Trail that goes around the lake. There is parking nearby, but no toilet.
