バートンアンドドレイコートでの 周辺の簡単なハイキングとウォーキング

A simple 5k circular walk which is practically mud free . Can be done in trainers but stout footwear is better. park near the Friendly Inn and enjoy a visit inside after your walk.

Fantastic views over the water and a small beach. Fishermen in waders are often spotted here catching dinner.

Here you can find visitor information, a nice cafe, a small shop and public toilets.

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.

It's worth the 5 minute walk from the visitor centre for the great views from the trig point, 113m above sea level

There is one problem with this side of Draycote water and that's the bugs. The wind blows across the lake and you get a face of bugs. But the views are good and it's always a good section of a ride, always busy when the weather is good...

Facilities, small shop and canteen - nice views and clean
