Some parts can get muddy if there’s been a lot of rain, one section by the cafe is very uneven. Mostly flat, beautiful views of the lake. Very popular with dog walkers and runners.

Waterloo Lake covers 33 acres (13.3 hectres) and is a popular place for rowers, with a relative new rowing club that was first started in 2006. There is a walking trail that takes in a delightfully scenic 5 kilometre (approximately 3.1 miles) loop of the park and both Waterloo Lake and Upper Lake.

Eccup Reservoir is the largest body of water in Yorkshire. It's classified as a Site of Special Scientific Interest due to its abundance of rare plant species that protect over 150 important bird species. It's surrounded by stunning woodland and features a network of well-marked trails, and is the perfect location for a family-friendly waterside stroll.

Eccup Reservoir was constructed in 1843 but extended to its present size in 1897. It's owned and managed by Yorkshire Water. The reservoir and surrounding area are a SSSI for the flora and waterbirds which breed here. The around the reservoir path is about 8km and popular with local walkers and families.
