ドレイコートウォーターでののおすすめツーリングルート

It’s a really nice place to get to and have a café ride. It’s nice to just ride around the reservoir. 

Draycote Water is an artificial reservoir (23 million m3), which was completed in 1969. In addition to its function as a water reserve, it is a leisure park u.a. for anglers, sailors, hikers. The rich bird life invites also to observations. Swimming is not allowed in the lake.

Excellent 8km cycling with great views and rest areas.

....an honour shared with The Red Lion at Hellidon, both a lofty 172m by my reckoning

You get on here at bottom of the hill going towards Draycote.

Beautiful spot to sit and enjoy though beware of the flies!

Cuts off the main road into Brinklow, it's only 200m long

Radford, lock 23, is the first of twenty locks that lift the canal 146’ to join the Oxford Canal at Napton. Back pumps were installed here in 1942 to return water from the bottom level.
