グラフハムウォーターのおすすめランニングルート

Ride with caution, mountain bike may cope better than my hybrid did.

From here you can access the cycle/walking path along the top of the dam which gives great views up the length of Grafham Water.

The cycle path along the top of the dam is wide and flat and gives great views across the reservoir. Reach it from the Visitor Centre at the northern end although access at the southern end is trickier as you have to squeeze through a narrow gap next to a locked gate by the main road.

This is a beautiful bay situated on the shores of Grafham Water, not too far from St Neots in Huntingdonshire. The lake is a biological Site of Special Scientific Interest and England's third biggest reservoir.

The valve tower at Grafham Lake homes the controls that operate the opening and closing of the gates/valves allowing the reservoir water to be correctly regulated. The tower was built in the 1960s and resembles something of a spaceship!

Beautiful views across the meadow toward Grafham Lake. In the spring months, you'll be delighted by a seasonal display of bright-yellow rapeseed flowers.

Good cafe usually busy but plenty of space for bikes and a playpark for youngsters. Great crazy golf course due to open May 2023.
